Angelo Raga (he/him)

Angelo is a third-year student majoring in political science. Growing up surrounded by talk of such increasingly prominent political issues as a rising cost of living, political polarization, and climate change, he has long sought an entrance into public service to learn how he can do his part to fight these issues. In the past, he has been involved in his community through his high school student council and his time volunteering to tutor and mentor at-risk elementary children at The Leaven. Being a commuter to Berkeley, however, he has struggled to find the connections and experience necessary to become involved in public service while in college. This academic year, he has begun participating in the Partnership for Pre-Professional Pilipinxs on campus, and he hopes that Democracy Camp will be his needed initial introduction to aspiring and current public servants who seek to help each other along in their career journeys.
