Darryl De Dios

Darryl is a University of Alberta student. He is working on an after-degree with a double major in Sociology and Human Geography. He is a big-time nerd who, along with religiously listening to philosophy podcasts, practices self-care by reading history and old philosophy textbooks. Over his years in University, he has gained a passion for theory and identity politics, which he now hopes to take into the world of community-building and community-advocacy.

Although he is yet in the beginning stages of building up his credentials and life accomplishments, his lived-experiences as a Filipino-born immigrant lends him much insight into the intersection between racism and poverty.  He hopes to work in the field of systemic design, and to continue learning more about the foundations of systemic thought, collaborative social action, and how social innovation might cultivate community-based solutions to complex social issues.
