In celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, we gathered for a delicious meal of banh mi, fried rice, spring rolls, and more from BΓ©-Em Asian Kitchen.
We're so thankful for Milan Patel and Annabell Talamoa-Mendez , SPHR for sharing their stories and culture with us!
Milan shared, "Being part of the Indian community has given me a strong sense of connection and belonging."
Annabell shared, "Samoan culture is deeply rooted in respect, service, and resilience, and those values continue to guide my life today."
Celebrating the history, culture, and traditions of AAPI communities reminds us of the strength found in sharing and learning from one another.
Keep swiping to read more from Milan and Annabell!
