About

Hey! I’m Jasmine (she/her/hers). I’m a junior from San Francisco, and I’m thrilled to continue serving as an LCSA this year. I’m an anthropology major and dance certificate student, and I also serve as a Writing Fellow and the current president of BodyHype Dance Company. In my free time I love cooking, going on picnics with friends, and — of course — dancing! The LCA has become my artistic refuge within the broader University, and I can’t wait to welcome you into this community.

As a multiracial, hapa, Filipina-American woman, I’ve always been passionate about advocating for authentic equity, inclusion, and accountability — especially within the arts world. Through my experience serving as an Anti-Racist Teach-In Leader in 2020, I have a strong understanding of the LCA’s support systems for BIPOC-identifying or underrepresented students, as well as the enduring potential for future improvement. I’d love to continue being a voice for student perspectives and demands for reform, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. And if you have any dance-related questions about the transition to Princeton or navigating the many opportunities the LCA provides, I’m here to help! I look forward to meeting you soon.
