We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who attended last night’s inaugural and exclusive Ascend OC Year End Gala. It was truly a memorable evening, dedicated to honoring our invaluable sponsors, devoted committee leads, and members whose support continues to fuel our mission. ✨ In 2024, Ascend OC proudly hosted over 16 events, connecting and uplifting the Orange County AAPI community. We are deeply grateful for the unwavering warmth and enthusiasm from our members, whose participation and commitment are vital to accelerating the growth of AAPI professionals. We eagerly anticipate the exciting events we have in store for 2025—stay tuned! 🧡 A special thank you to our Sponsorship Committee, led by Jaspreet (Jas) Kaur and Kamini Sheth Srinivasan, and for the invaluable guidance and support of Diane Thai, Vera Fair, Anita J. Tse, and Mindy Pham-Bui in making this splendid evening a reality. We also wish to express our deep appreciation to Coto De Caza Golf & Racquet Club for graciously hosting Ascend OC at their beautiful venue. Lastly, we are thrilled to have had the support of our student chapters, Ascend UCI and Ascend UCR, as well as the generous participation of PACN at UCI, Gautam Khanna, the Bhangra Group, and Yorba Linda Mayor Shivinder Singh at our Year End Gala.
