Dear advocate,

I hope you are enjoying the cooler weather. 
 
As I reflect on the past four years as President, I am filled with immense gratitude and pride. Leading the second-oldest organization dedicated to empowering the Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities has been both an honor and a privilege.  

One of the most rewarding aspects of my tenure has been meeting each year's intern cohort and witnessing the profound impact of our OCA National Internship Program. Seeing how our interns evolve into remarkable leaders, equipped with the skills and experiences to make significant contributions to society, has been truly inspiring. 
 
Our interns are a testament to the success of this program and the bright future ahead for our communities. They exemplify the values and goals that OCA strives to uphold.
