Gunnar Langenhuizen, Political Staffer
I’m a political staffer, and I’m a CEC Climate Steward.
“As a young professional beginning my journey in the environmental field, this course offered an ideal opportunity to grow my network, deepen my expertise, and dedicate myself to a project that positively impacts both my community and the environment.

About Gunnar
Gunnar’s role as a political staffer impacts the entire State of California, but is shaped by the issues affecting the 37th Assembly District, which spans all of Santa Barbara County and the southernmost portion of San Luis Obispo County. Gunnar is a liaison between constituents and the state, helping individuals access resources and ensuring their voices are heard. Staying informed about regional environmental issues is a key part of his work, allowing him to brief Assemblymember Hart effectively and collaborate with local stakeholders to safeguard and support the community. Because of the Climate Stewards course, Gunnar was able to connect with community members, develop effective communication skills around climate change, and feel more empowered to drive meaningful change.
