Elisa Rae Yeung

Mia organized an amazing first virtual rally through her organization, Triple A Movement. She was able to use her network and recruit multiple notable AAPI figures such as Ruby Ibarra, Chow Mane, Lucas Tecson, and more! I met her at USF and she is very organized and detail-oriented. Can’t wait to see what events she plans in the future!
