H@H: Ep 45 – Alan Duong joins host, Paulina Lee on this week’s episode of Here@Haas. Alan, a US Army Veteran and Sr. Financial Analyst at LinkedIn, leverages his passions for photography, the outdoors and much more to give back to the community and causes that mean the most to him. Recently elected as the Executive Vice President of the EWMBA Association, he hopes over the next year to lead EWMBA students in a smooth transition back to an in-person Haas experience. Fueling his passion to get involved with the community he founded Greenfoot Hiking, an equitable outdoors community, “I recognized that when I was growing up, I had a community center that helped me not fall into the wrong crowds. And I recognized that a lot of people […] don't have the right social construct to support them.” On why Alan pursued student leadership at Haas: “I’ve always been a proponent of getting yourself involved because if I only have one opportunity at a school that I always dreamt about going to, I better take full opportunity and go all in […] And I'd like to think that by the time I graduate, I'd like to be able to say, yes, I did.”ResourcesGreenfoot HikingAlan’s Photography: Website, Instagram and Ansel Adams Wilderness MontageReel Asian Podcast: Subscribe & listen on Spotify and Apple Podcasts Organizations Alan Supports: Wonder Warrior, Sierra Club, Second Harvest Food Bank of Silicon Valley and Citizen SchoolsProfessor Panos PatatoukasProfessor Peter GoodsonEagle Peak LoopWhitney Houston’s Soundtrack of GMAT InspirationSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/here-at-haas/donations
