About

Dominic was a previous Walker Communications Fellow, Fund II Appretince, and Communications Associate. His coverage highlighted initiatives and news throughout the ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ network, important equity, diversity, and inclusion work, the ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ on Campus program, and the 'people' stories at ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½.

As a first generation Filipino American from San Francisco, California, Dominic learned about the importance of conservation and environmental justice at an early age. Dominic's passion for supporting underrepresented voices inspired him to spearhead celebrations for Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month at ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½. When he is not writing and storytelling for the birds, Dominic enjoys specialty coffee, running, and watching the Golden State Warriors.
