In April 2025 I will be taking part in a 70km trek through Patagonia with a group of 70 colleagues, carrying all our gear and with the aim of raising 70k for mental health causes.

I have personally chosen to support Asian Mental Health collective, whose mission is to foster "healing, resilience and connection in Asian communities in the US through culturally-informed clinical services, virtual peer support spaces, and support for Asian mental health providers."

As an Asian American myself who has experienced suicides within my community, this cause is close to my heart. "Mental illnesses can be effectively treated, but there is a societal tendency to view mental illness differently from physical ailments. This stigma is particularly prevalent in Asian communities, where studies highlight it as the main barrier that prevents Asian Americans from seeking help." Source and more details found here. I hope you can join me to fundraise for this good cause!
