      <image:caption>eleanor pries Eleanor has designed for our cities’ essential sites since 1999. Principal and founder of EPDesign, Eleanor is widely trained in architecture, urban design, landscape and planning. She excels at bringing large, multi-disciplinary teams together on complex sites and envisioning the possibilities of our future public spaces. Part of Eleanor’s success is her ability to see and think from macro to micro — from essential vision, to strategy on efficiency and buildability, to the design of urban installations for active spaces. Her current work includes the redevelopment of sublime, post-industrial sites such as the Potrero Power Plant in San Francisco and Kaiser Steel Napa Pipe Site in Napa, building on her experience reimagining Pier 70 and the 5M Project in San Francisco. Before founding her practice, Eleanor was a Partner at SITELAB urban studio, an Urban Designer at SMWM, Inc and Urban Planner at The Cecil Group in Boston. Her work focuses on large, urban waterfront projects—for sites such as Russia Wharf and the Central Artery/Tunnel in Boston, Piers 92-94 in New York, downtown San Pedro in Los Angeles, and Hunters Point Shipyard and Treasure Island in San Francisco. Eleanor has a BA from Harvard University, a MA in architectural theory from UVA, and a M.Arch from UC Berkeley. While at Berkeley, she received the John K. Branner Traveling Fellowship, a year of self-directed research on the architecture and ecologies of water systems. An innovator in the field, Eleanor has been featured in The Atlantic Cities, Archinect, Pruned, and Wired Magazine for her exploratory research and design installations. An adjunct Professor at UC Berkeley, she teaches architecture and lectures on design and research. An east coast transplant, Eleanor has lived, worked, and surfed in San Francisco since 2005.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>dr. annette clarke As a clinical psychologist, I've worked with youth for many years and in several different capacities. I know how art can positively impact a youth's self-confidence, sense of belonging, well-being, and overall mental health. When I was a school-based clinician at a struggling public school, I set about joining the community as an act of solidarity rather than an act of charity. I partnered with the art teacher to create an installation that would hang in my office for the duration of my tenure there. I gave her the quote "bloom where you are planted" and asked that the students to create artwork based on that quote. The result was a welcoming, joyful, hopeful, symbol for everyone. I have a long history of voluntarism and service and would love to be part of an organization that supports youth and fosters a community where they can thrive.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Who we are - aaron de la cruz (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>aaron de la cruz Aaron De La Cruz's work, though minimal and direct at first, tends to overcome barriers of separation and freely steps in and out of the realms of fine art and design. The act and the marks themselves are very primal but tend to take on distinct and sometimes higher meanings in the broad range of mediums and contexts they appear in and on. His work finds strengths in the reduction of his interests in life to minimal information. De La Cruz gains from the idea of exclusion, just because you don't literally see it, doesn't mean that it's not there.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Liam Mcstravick, Music Production (+ YAX Alum) Liam Mcstravick is a hip-hop producer and DJ born and raised in San Francisco. With his father from Ireland and his mother from Los Angeles, he was inspired at a young age from an eclectic background of different types of music. He grew up listening to their large collection of vinyl with genres ranging from reggae, blues, jazz, hip-hop, house, and punk. He quickly developed an obsession for music, picked up trumpet and tried out several instruments throughout his school years. At San Diego State, he hosted his first radio show where he played vinyl records he would find in the dollar section of a local record store. It wasn’t until he took a break from education and returned to San Francisco when he started buying samplers and producing hip-hop songs for his friends that it clicked that music could be something he could pursue a career in. He later returned to college at SF State, where he received his degree in Broadcasting and Electronic Communication Arts with an emphasis in Music Production. Currently he is producing and recording various artists and rappers in the San Francisco hip-hop scene.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Ambassadors - Steve Gennrich (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Steve Gennrich Steve grew up in Wisconsin building skateboard ramps, doodling imaginary landscapes, and challenging teachers with unconventional homework. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin with a BS in Mechanical Engineering along with taking art classes with an emphasis on printmaking. He worked as an engineer at Honda, troubleshooting the ‘96 Civic and at Bryte Technologies, testing aerospace materials, before deciding to start volunteering at the Exploratorium 15 years ago. For six years, Steve managed exhibit design and engineering staff and led over 100 projects, including creating some of the first hands-on exhibits at science institutions around the world. In ’99 Steve helped establish the first Science of Skateboarding program which matured over the years to involve curating two exhibitions, professional demos, a website, a TV show, and a mobile exhibition. He took a one-year sabbatical to work at Pèndulum and design the Jardi de les Percepcions, an outdoor exhibit area in Parc de Vallparadís, Terrassa, Spain. Upon returning to the Exploratorium, Steve managed a National Science Foundation project to build and study twenty outdoor exhibits at Fort Mason, a National Park on San Francisco’s waterfront. He enjoyed the nature of this work so much that he spent the last eight years in the Studio for Public Spaces leading a team of designers, engineers, and architects, focused on creating social learning environments in public spaces. He especially appreciates the potential impact of site-specific exhibits in public space, reaching a more diverse group of people and igniting their interest in the world around them.</image:caption>
