Ingrid Ang

Ingrid Ang is a first-year MPP candidate focusing her studies on K-12 education and immigration policy.
Before working full-time in education, she interned with the International Rescue Committee in Dallas, where she supported community gardening, economic empowerment, and food justice programming for refugee youth. Then, she worked as a math teacher for emergent-bilingual students at Oakland High School. In her three years at O-High, she advocated for enrichment classes for students with interrupted formal educations, co-led a newcomer web development program, and supported the creation of the school’s first academic pathway for immigrant students. After, she spent three years working at a non-profit organization whose mission is to increase access to careers in technology across the Bay Area, Chicago, and New York City. As a program manager, she managed in-school and after-school coding programs across SFUSD and OUSD. Most recently, as a senior program data and evaluation manager, she designed and led the organization’s first data strategy. Outside school, you can find her running around the East Bay or at the park with her two shepherd dogs, Stewie and Duckie!
