Claire Cao Co-Founder & President
Claire co-founded DeclarASIAN in her freshman year of high school. She was born and raised in Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love, so promoting cultural acceptance is central to her identity. After writing about her complex experiences as an Asian-American and the importance of standing up for justice in the 2017 Facing History Essay Contest, Claire was able to spread a global message for the first time. Influenced by the power of words, she became determined to do more on behalf of this cause and is thrilled to be working with talented young activists around the world. She aspires to one day foster social change through marketing and consulting. Other than that, she is also a Taco Bell connoisseur.

Carina Sun Co-Founder & Vice President
Public Relations and Marketing Manager Carina co-founded DeclarASIAN before her freshman year of high school. Since her elementary years, Carina has witnessed far too many cases in which Asians were discriminated against and has always felt the need to stand up for herself. She is humbled to have reached out to so many devoted and outspoken individuals who work alongside her in creating a community of empowered people. Together, they have utilized their skills to build this platform for others to share opinions, express feelings, and raise each other up. With years of passion for the arts, Carina hopes to someday make an impact in the graphic design industry. She is also an environmentalist hoping to make the earth a better place.
