SAAD ASAD

Saad Asad manages communications at California YIMBY, building support for housing policies that reduce climate-warming pollution. He previously led grassroots campaigns in San Diego that successfully passed local pro-housing measures. Before policy work, he launched software products at organizations like U.S. Digital Response and Utmost, plus did marketing consulting. His experience translating technical concepts helps him make policy accessible to broader audiences. He swims, watches live theater, and does yoga—proof that nerds can be well-rounded humans.
