Another wonderful year engaging in insightful discussions at the Consulate General of Japan in Los Angeles’ AAPI Community Leaders Luncheon.
“Consul General Kenko Sone delivered remarks at the beginning of the program and offered a toast with hopes for the continued deepening of friendship among the various Asian communities in the region. […] The event ended with a group photo in the Japanese garden just outside the banquet room, originally built when the hotel was under Japanese ownership as the New Otani Hotel and Garden.” - from Alexander Kim’s post.
Truly fortunate to share another day among great and caring minds. I genuinely enjoyed their community leaders luncheon back in 2023, now 2025, and very looking forward to the nexts. Many thanks to Consulate General Kenko Sone, Mrs. Sone, and the @japanconsulatela team for bringing such delightful energy to our communities.

Had a blast at @adidas celebrating AAPI Heritage Month screening our film in-person & virtually across Adidas North America.
Hats off to the Adidas team for your initiative in API content awareness and inclusion. Thank you for allowing us to share our story. We look forward to bringing more API narrative driven content to the US consumer market 👟 #yougotthis #adidas #wdaentertainment #crimsonedgecreative
A beautiful night at the first @facfilmfestival created by the dedicated and talented team at @filamcreative 📣
Witnessing @markjlabella journey from the start and now being able to immerse in the great things that you do for the community is truly amazing. Mark, your presence makes my heart smile a little brighter each time, knowing that our community is blessed with someone who’s in it for the right reasons. I love you & will always support the things that you do.
Side note, Mark’s celebrity chef husband @chefmarvz just opened his very own restaurant in LA @hungryturtlela and I think I’m getting hungry! 🐢

How did I ever get so lucky? Cozy days at @wdaentertainment 💓 Words can’t express the gratitude I hold for our team. From the bottom of my heart, thank you (still missing a few folks but you snooze you lose 😆!)
April 20th, 2023 marks the launch of the first WDA API Short Film Showcase Program with “The Show” by @jessegi - Followed by a Q&A moderated by my dear @markjlabella - We enjoyed the abrupt gasps in the auditorium! Can’t wait for more 😆 #WDAscreening #WDASSP
