How my journey began
Hi! My name is Xin Yi (she/her/hers).
I come from the sunny island of Singapore. Before arriving in the United States, I had a lot of questions unanswered. No matter where I was or what I did, I never felt like I belonged. It was not until I came here that I found the language for what I was experiencing.
It wasn’t unfairness, it was systemic inequities.
I wasn’t being a “troublemaker”; I was being a truth-seeker.
I didn’t experience what I did because “life is unfair”;
I experienced what I did because
people made life unfair.
Now, I dedicate my time to advancing equity in the workplace intersectionally.
