Japanese American National Museum features two of my design projects

Two design projects I worked on, Loving Day, and the Hafu Film, were featured in the “Visible & Invisible” exhibit on multiracial Japanese identity at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles. The exhibit was part of the 2013 Hapa Japan Conference and Festival, where I served as an advisor and a panelist for “A Roundtable Discussion of Community-Based Organizations: History and Prospects.”

Learn more about my speaking engagements, or my work as a community organizer with Loving Day.
