MEET THE RHINO LEADERSHIP BOARD

Current Term: January 2021 - June 2021
Connor Wong - President
My goal with every interaction is to have all parties smiling. You can always catch me beaming, and I believe that I can create an environment where everyone has as big of a grin as mine.
 
I first joined Rhino Toastmasters to perfect my best man's speech. After my first meeting, I quickly fell in love with the club.

In my off time, you can find me geeking out about the latest blockbuster, traveling abroad, or attending my local neighborhood trivia nights.

Let's connect!

Angie Chau - VP of Education
Back in the day I was a member of Rhino Toastmasters. In 2016, I left my  conventional office job to pursue my dream of becoming a digital nomad. Since then, I have visited over 50 countries, more than 25 of which I brought along my senior rescue Yorkie (Roger Wellington). In 2021, I adopted a second dog (Penny Rose) and also transformed her into a world traveler. After 8 years of nomadic lifestyle, I came back to the Bay Area and the first thing I did was rejoin Rhino Toastmasters! Public Speaking is a skill, and practice makes perfect. I guide members to keep pushing themselves when it comes to taking their public speaking skills to the next level.

I'm a Distinguished Toastmaster veteran with over 20 years of experience in public speaking. I'm an expert at my craft, but that wasn't always the case. We all have to start from somewhere. As VP of Membership, I make sure all newcomers feel welcomed and supported when starting their Toastmasters journey.

Skylar Nguyen - VP of Public Relations
I'm an environmental scientist in the transportation industry. I specialize in evaluating project impacts and prepare environmental documents to disclose them. As you can imagine, this requires me to speak in front of groups regularly. Rhino Toastmasters helped me to improve on my public speaking skills and confidence during team meetings and work presentations. As VP of Public Relations I make sure to documents and advertise all of the achievements and activities Rhino participates in! Whether that is winning speech contests or simply enjoying a dinner together as a club.

​Milo Piazza - Treasurer
As a site reliability engineer, public speaking did not come easy to me. I found Rhino Toastmasters to improve my confidence when it comes to speaking in front of groups. Not only did I find an outlet to grow as a speaker, but I found a community where we all share the same goal. The skills I picked up at Rhino Toastmasters has continued to contribute to my success as transitioned into leadership roles at work.
