Over the moon excited to work with my co-Fellows, under the guidance and support of @IWAHQ and @grundfos, to highlight the critical role of the youth at the 2023 UN Water Conference. Honestly overwhelmed at this once in a lifetime opportunity and responsibility! #TheOnusIsOnUs

When you ask the universe for something - or in my case, 3 things - know when to recognize that it's being offered to you as a path and a process, rather than a finished product or a package of gifts. I am grateful to everyone that I meet on this journey 🙏

[Yang Villa @YangWaterProf]

Three years ago I began praying instensely for patience, humility and discipline. Then earlier this year I was thrown into the world of martial arts: first Taekwondo, then full-contact MA, and now Kyokushin Karate (with a bit of Muay Thai on the side).

AND THEN we hear from the first high-level panel about all the ways the water world is shifting toward more inclusive, people- and planet-centered financing. The speakers were delivering one punch after another, making us rethink the ways we can do better. @ADBWater #AWF2022
