(linanna1@msu.edu)
Anna Lin is a Spring 2020 MSU graduate from James Madison College with a BA in International Relations. As a student, she was very involved in the Asian Pacific Islander Desi-American (APIDA) community. She served on Asian Pacific American Student Organization’s (APASO) board, rechartered Alpha Phi Gamma National Sorority Inc. at MSU and founded APIDA Celebratory to celebrate APIDA excellence on campus.
Anna’s undergraduate career helped her find her passion, which is uplifting and empowering marginalized voices to ensure that we are being heard and have a seat at the decision-making table. In June 2021, Anna joined the OCAT team as a coordinator and advisor for APASO. Anna is very excited to be back at MSU and working with students to share the knowledge she has over the past year working at a nonprofit. Additionally, Anna is also serving as the advisor for Midwest APIDA Student Union Leadership Summit hosted by MSU in November. Her other projects include APIDA Heritage Month and APASO’s 40th Anniversary. Anna hopes that through this programming, APIDAs will be seen and heard on campus due to COVID and the rise in Asian Hate.
