The Young Asian Leadership Alliance started in 2018 and consists of workshops that address Asian issues as these topics are often overlooked due to small Asian-American populations in schools. In 2019 it was held at Brooklyn Friends School. For my CAS Project, I took a leadership role in hosting the conference along with my partner. We led meetings for planning and organizing the event, as well as delegating tasks for other student organizers. I created a YALA Gala poster, communicating with my advisor on how it should be presented, aesthetic choices. For the day of, we coordinated workshops, and I led the Southeast Asian micro-affinity group discussion. It warmed my heart to see that my project and this conference did have a positive impact on attendees, and that we did indeed create a space to share Asian-American narratives.
