#346 How Local Politics Work - Manu Koenig
Manage episode 401660745 series 1441507
Manu Koenig serves as First District Supervisor for Santa Cruz County. Prior to his election to the Board, Manu worked for several technology startups including Paystand in Scotts Valley and Civinomics, where he was co-founder and CEO. The local startup created an app for citizens to propose and vote on new policy online. It also conducted polling and survey research for local governments throughout the Monterey and San Francisco Bay Area. Manu was born and raised in Santa Cruz County. He holds a Bachelor's degree from Stanford University and is an avid surfer, cyclist and climber. Manu lives in Live Oak with his wife Leah, daughter Charlotte and blue heeler Benjie.
As our Country gets enamored with the Trump vs Biden election cycle, it’s easy to forget about local politics. This is the place we can often have the greatest impact, and this podcast is about the levers we can pull to make change happen.
