Yuki is the National Organizer of the Our Power Campaign, which supports grassroots community efforts to transition away from an extractive economy towards building local, living economies that are healthy, democratic and just.
After graduate studies in Urban Planning at UCLA, she spent 15 years at Communities for a Better Environment as a Youth Organizer, Lead Organizer and Southern California Program Director. At CBE, Yuki was active in successful grassroots campaigns to stop two fossil fuel power plant projects in Southeast LA, to pass health protective policies at the city, regional and state levels, and to prevent the expansion of the I-710 diesel truck corridor. She also helped carry out CBE’s movement building work with the California Environmental Justice Alliance and with the Grassroots Global Justice Alliance at the state and national levels. Raised in Southern California, Yuki has been an active member of the Los Angeles Eco-Village since 2000, and would like to support more cooperative endeavors in Los Angeles. She is trained in conflict mediation and group facilitation, and enjoys biking, gardening and board games.
