Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolZack Exley is a seasoned founder and civic strategist with over a decade of experience designing national-scale political and policy campaigns from San Francisco. As Founder and Executive Director of New Consensus he helped introduce the 2019 Green New Deal and now architects the Mission for America—a blueprint for a full-scale economic mobilization toward a clean, equitable economy. His background spans campaign leadership (including senior roles on Bernie 2016 and congressional races), tech-enabled organizing at ThoughtWorks and MoveOn.org, and nonprofit innovation at the Wikimedia Foundation where he built international A/B testing and payments systems. He combines street-level organizing experience—from labor picket lines to field offices—with product-minded experimentation and data-driven revenue and community strategies. Notably, he co-founded the New Organizing Institute, which seeded much of the talent and tools behind modern digital campaigns. He brings a rare blend of policy vision, operational rigor, and hands-on technical experimentation to large social and political challenges.
