Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolStephen Scapelliti is a mission-driven founder and operations leader with nine years in tech-enabled civic organizing and a prior career building healthcare delivery and commercial law expertise. As Co-Director and Co-Founder of Progressive Coders Network he helps run a decentralized, volunteer-driven nonprofit that evolved from Coders for Sanders and builds free, open-source tools to reduce big-money influence in politics. He combines legal and economic training with hands-on community management—running onboardings, project organization, compliance, and strategy—while keeping grassroots culture and radical inclusion at the center. Stephen also runs Big Amp Media to amplify progressive campaigns and consults for nonprofit media work, bringing both policy-level insight and practical digital outreach experience. An unexpected thread through his career is translating regulatory and health-economics models into scalable community programs, demonstrating an ability to move between technical coordination, legal constraints, and grassroots impact.
