YIMBY Action Executive Director Laura Foote will sit down with Konstantin Hatcher of California YIMBY to discuss the pro-housing movement and how we can make it more inclusive.
Konstantin is the Organizing Director at California YIMBY, a fellow YIMBY organization that advocates for more housing throughout the state. YIMBY Action frequently partners with CA YIMBY to advocate for pro-housing state legislation.
After a decade in sales and account management, Konstantin realized his passion for empowering people to own their voice through volunteer leadership on the 2008 Obama Presidential Campaign. Beginning in Summer 2010 as an Obama campaign Regional Field Director, his Southern California volunteer operation was the most active in the country and he ultimately became the Operation Vote and Early Vote Director for Wisconsin in early 2012.
After the Obama campaign, he returned to Los Angeles where he continued to lead the grassroots organizing efforts of several political campaigns and nonprofits. An avid boarder, you might find Konstantin careening down the slopes on his snowboard or cruising along the beach on his skateboard.
