I've spent the past four years as a member of Wasabi, and my final two as a member of the board. I'm astonished by how much Wasabi has grown, and I'm confident it will continue to flourish as Joey and I pass along this spicy evolution of poetry and artistry to the next generation of PAA Wasabi members. Thank you so much for inspiring me over the past four years, and for giving me a safe space to share my art. I love and appreciate all of the hard work which has gone into this year's digital magazine, and I can't wait to see what the future hold for Wasabi. Stay spicy y'alls!
