Dante is an alumnus of UC Berkeley’s Undergraduate School of Public Health. His passion for health equity is grounded in his lived experience of witnessing injustices faced by vulnerable populations. This sparked his desire to influence the social and political determinants of health, mainly through policy change, systems change, data democratization, and meaningful community engagement. Prior to joining the Possibility Lab, Dante served as the Project Manager for Resident Leadership with Healthy Contra Costa (formerly known as Healthy Richmond), an initiative currently under RCF Connects (formerly known as Richmond Community Foundation). Before that, he was a research assistant for the Madsen Research Group, Falbe Lab, and an intern for the City of Richmond and Contra Costa Health. Dante is a proud Filipino-American raised in the Richmond and San Pablo Community found in the East Bay. In his free time, he loves to play volleyball, workout, and be a foodie traveler.
