As a first generation Filipino American from San Francisco, California, Dominic learned about the importance of conservation and environmental justice at an early age. Dominic's passion for supporting underrepresented voices inspired him to spearhead celebrations for Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month at ÃÛèÖAPP.
