Alyssa is a State Engagement Manager at Recidiviz. She spent the last seven years living in London, most recently working as Head of Government Growth at Beam, a social impact startup that helps homeless people into stable employment and housing. (No, she didn’t adopt an accent. Yes, she does now have an affinity for cups of tea and cozy pubs). In her free time, Alyssa loves doing yoga, bouldering, traveling anywhere that has delicious food, and seeing live music (any genre!). She holds an M.P.A. in Digital Technologies and Public Policy from University College London and a B.S. in Advertising and Political Science from Boston University.
A diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace is essential to our mission. People come to Recidiviz to contribute to an urgent cause, and to work alongside incredible coworkers who care as much as they do. To ensure that we’re building intentional products and amplifying the work of others in the reform ecosystem, we are committed to fostering a diverse team that reflects the people we serve.
We combine the efficiency of a tech company with the heart of a non-profit. Recidiviz began as a volunteer project at Google and has since grown into one of the brightest, kindest teams that civic tech has to offer. Our north star: safely and fairly shrinking the criminal justice system.
