Immigrant Backgrounds

Growing up in an Asian family I think has affected my leadership style because I’ve basically worked my whole career with a sense of community and team

Trans, non-binary, and Two-Spirit community

I would say a sense of humor… you have to have a sense of humor

2SLGBTQIA+ Introspection

I think a lot of queer people have to be overeducated to make it far… But then when we talk to others, people get lost in our academic talk. So it’s about ‘how can we put things in a way that somebody who doesn’t have as much dedication [to these issues] understand it?’ So being able to break down ideas in a really simple way

2SLGBTQIA+ Introspection

Ability to stop and listen, and the ability to connect with people emotionally. That’s something that comes from being queer. Like when we meet each other, what’s the first thing we do? We talk about our coming out story. We crave that emotional connection. So I’m able to connect with them emotionally and in a way that they may not be used to

2SLGBTQIA+ Introspection

I think being able to empathize or imagining or picturing other people’s situation, whether that is visible or not visible, I think that type of experience and skills make me a better leader”

2SLGBTQIA+ Introspection

I think when you’re part of a minority group and you’ve had to question yourself and who you are to understand who you are… That introspection. That process has really helped me know myself a lot better and know my limits, respect them better. And respect others as well, the limits of others and their comfort levels, their opinions, their differences
