Hey John, it’s
Adrian! I’m the Finance Director on Angela’s campaign for Congress. You’re
a big part of this team, and that’s why I wanted to take a moment to
introduce myself personally.

Me, hard at work making calls!
Without further ado, here’s some things to know about me 😊:
I was born and raised in Bakersfield, California. I’m the son of a
farmworker, and a proud product of public schools and punk shows. 🎸

Little Adrian :)
My mom’s faith taught me that the world doesn’t fix itself, we fix it
together. That’s why I’ve spent my life trying to build something better
with the people around me. It’s why I’m so passionate and excited about
what I’m working with Angela to achieve in CA-34!!
I studied finance at San José State (go Spartans! 💙💛) and somewhere
between hosting basement shows and debating ethics, I found my way into
fundraising — first for the YWCA and local food banks, then for movements
and candidates fighting for justice and dignity. Since then, I’ve helped
flip red states blue, trained young organizers, and supported community
efforts from the Central Valley to Vieques, Puerto Rico (and have even
been a Silicon Valley EduTech startup founder).
Now, I’m proud to serve as Finance Director where I can help power this
people-first campaign the same way I’ve always done: one conversation, one
act of generosity, one shared belief in a better world at a time.
When I’m not crunching numbers or sending fundraising emails, you can find
me camping, reading The Crying of Lot 49, or walking my dog Noodle (the
schnoodle) with my partner, Stephanie. I’m a lifelong Pokémon fan, lover
of jazz and tacos, and still believe, after all these years, that a better
world isn’t just possible, it’s necessary.

our campaign’s work? I’d love to have you with me.
