Connect with Monica

Thank you, Monica

Monica Lin-Meyer has been a co-chair of Asian Pacific Islander PRG since 2021. PiD is grateful for her leadership and continued service on our Leadership Council. Reflecting on her time as co-chair, Monica says,

“It’s been a real privilege to serve as the API PRG co-chair since 2021. We started this group when anti-Asian hate was at a peak - and we continue to come together now to celebrate our community at a time when we face new challenges and threats. I love knowing that this group is in good hands with Elaine and Phil, and I know they’ll steward the PiD AAPI community well in the coming years.”
