Delia Cheung Hom joined Northeastern in June 2006 to serve as the Assistant Director for the Asian American Center. She is currently serving as the Center's second director. Before joining the staff of the AAC, Delia worked in student affairs at the University of California, Riverside (UCR). She served as the Graduate Intern for Student Organizations for one year, and served as a Program Coordinator in Asian Pacific Student Programs for four years.

Delia's passion for working with Asian American students stems from her experiences as an undergraduate at Vassar College, from where she holds a BA in Cognitive Science.

After spending time on the west coast, Delia has come back to her home state of Massachusetts.  Delia is involved with Boston Progress Arts Collective, a local Asian American arts organization.  When she's not at work, Delia enjoys being a feminist, reading, writing and doing number puzzles in her head.
