Denver Metro:

Alejandra X. Castañeda (she/her/ella) is a bicultural, multilingual communicator and Pedestrian Dignity

co-organizer who could no longer ignore the harms of car-centric policies and practices. Naming land-use and transportation inequities and sharing her civic-engagement learnings with community members so they can organize and advocate for themselves keeps her activist fire alive. She lives in Northwest Denver with her teenager and dog.
