Oakland City Councilmember and Goldman School graduate Annie Campbell Washington talks about her career path in public service that has included stints as Chief of Staff for then-Oakland mayors Jerry Brown and Jean Quan, a partial term on the Oakland Unified School Board and then, in 2014, she ran successfully for elected office. Her inspiring story includes a nod to the quantitative analysis education that she received at the Goldman School because she says it taught her to properly evaluate municipal budgets. Washington also was recently named assistant dean for the Masters in Public Affairs program, working alongside Henry E. Brady, dean of the Goldman School of Public Policy at UC Berkeley.
