Angela Liu (she/her) is the interim president of Hack.Diversity, a regionally and nationally recognized non-profit (501(c)(3)) on a mission to transform the economy by breaking down barriers for Black and Latinx professionals in tech. Throughout her six-year tenure at the organization, she has consistently deepened racial equity partnership with Host Companies to cultivate environments for ~400 Hack.Fellows to not only enter and grow within the company, but also lead within the innovation economy.

Angela holds a decade of progressive responsibility and impact at the intersection of equitable STEM workforce development, economic mobility, and corporate responsibility. Previous work contributed toward access and equity efforts of MIT, National Science Foundation, AmeriCorps Jumpstart for Young Children, and Georgetown Center for Social Justice. She is a naturalized U.S. citizen, educated by Boston Public Schools, and raised by proud blue-collar workers perplexed about all her decisions, yet resignedly receptive nonetheless. She often reflects on how she was Asian before it was cool, and operates daily on the strong belief that all should exercise their power to question the status quo, break cycles, and apply the innovation principles we applaud to social challenges. 

Outside of Hack.Diversity, Angela's priorities include chairing the Community Advisory Board of WBUR, serving on the Board of Directors of Company One Theatre, and planning next adventures with the occasionally divey, dicey, but always delicious, learnings that come from it.
