Ben Watkins (C'13) is the definition of an involved alumni. In addition to having served on UPAAN's very own national board, he also is involved in the planning committee for the class of 2013's 5th reunion this year. During his time at Penn, Ben was involved in a vertiable laundry list of organizations including but not limited to the Penn Taiwanese Society, Class Board, and Asian Pacific American Heritage Week. We talk about his upbringing in a multiethnic Taiwanese/Italian household, how he was able to find time and meaning in being involved in so many different things, and how to stay in touch with your APA identity post-graduation (he's also involved in the Taiwanese American Professionals NY chapter). We also touch on the fitness classes he's teaching, and his love for different types of cuisine and board games, and why class of 2013 should definitely come out to their reunion.
