our story
aob first sparked to life in the cold winter of 2020.
The end of the year was a good time to start something new. A Discord server was made and a group was born.
activity picked up during the summer, all thanks to a gift card.
shoutout to gongcha LOL.
now, we’ve grown to over a thousand members with hundreds of events to bring us all together.
and we’re planning on sticking around :)
meet the team

founder
Hi everyone! Excited to kick off intros! 🤗 I’ve lived in Boston pretty much my whole life, but went to college in upstate NY and spent a year abroad in Korea. I currently work at an architecture and design firm. I enjoy planning events and meeting new people in the area, and I love seeing our Asian community in Boston grow. 💗 Always down for trying a new dinner spot and grabbing dessert🧋

Hello everyone~ I've lived in Boston for most of my life. I studied maths in school and work as a data scientist in Seaport (but also i never go into the office because WFH yay). I have a shiba inu named Chimaek (@chimaek.inu on Instagram), she's sometimes a little rat. I'm really excited to see the community growing knowing how hard of a time I originally had when making friends in Boston

Hi! I’m Sunny, the local femme mod, I organize and coordinate events for women of SAB, please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any ideas or want to co-host something! 🙂
I was born in Singapore, immigrated to the states when I was 4, and grew up in the suburbs of Boston. Went to Phillips Andover/Northeastern University so I’m basically as local as it can get.
By day I work at a biotech (developing novel immune therapies). By night, if I’m not at my ceramics studio, I’m probably at home serving my cats, arts n crafting while watching people play valo.

Hi! I'm Nick, I currently run a bar in Mission HIll called Tavern of Tales. I've lived in Boston 9 years now, and originally came here for school (BU). I'm an theatrical audio engineer & sound designer. I have a beautiful 2 year old german shepherd called Celeste. Excited to be more involved in the community and meet more people. Always down to meet in person for drinks or online for valorant (if you carry me) or other co op games.
