What an inspiring afternoon at the 12th DIMF MusicalStar North America Regional Finals! 🎭✨ Thank you Betty Bong for the invitation—Eugene Lee and I were blown away by the incredible talent on display. And a special shoutout to MC Catherine Liang, Miss California 2022, who brought such energy and elegance to the stage! As Ed Camarao and Tina Cen Camarao shared, the AAPI youth were truly phenomenal—shining as singers, actors, and dancers. From the Bay Area to across North America, and with world-class “triple threat” performers from Asia, the future of the performing arts is bright! The Strand Theater was the perfect backdrop to celebrate these rising stars. Grateful to be part of such a meaningful and uplifting event—thank you again for having us! #DIMF #MusicalStar #AAPIExcellence #PerformingArts #FutureLeaders #BayArea #ArtsAndCulture #RisingStars #TripleThreat #Community #Inspiration #YouthTalent #California
