The American Speech and Hearing Association celebrates Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month with the rest of the world in May.
My three children are of Pacific Island heritage, and I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees in Hawaii, so it’s a special month for me too. Pictured above are me (far right) with my Pacific Island and Asian American colleagues: Jasmin Ash, Professor Shari Goo-Yoshino, Dr. Pauline Mashima (ASHA Fellow), and Gabrielle Bierce at ASHA Convention 2017 in Los Angeles.
I learned so much from all of these talented, brilliant women.
