Jerry
Community Transformation Rising from Within | Organizational Development | Human-Centered Venture Design

Jerry T Chang is a visionary leader with a passion for empowering teams, organizations, and communities through radical inclusion. With a background in engineering, management, venture design, and social innovation, he partners with communities to create systems of transformation that empower individuals and create opportunities for the future.
Jerry has a Bachelor's degree in Materials Science and Engineering from UC Berkeley, and completed coursework for two Master's Programs from Cal State East Bay in Engineering Management and Computational Statistics. He studied leadership at the Panetta Institute for Public Affairs, Stanford Continuing Studies, and as a Coro Fellow in Public Affairs in San Francisco, as well as a FUSE Executive Fellow with FUSE Corps.

As the founder of Startup East Bay, Jerry inspired a culture rooted in tech and social innovation at Cal State East Bay for the underserved community of Hayward, California. He led the Data, Evaluation, and Alignment for Hayward Promise Neighborhood, a $55M grant by the US Dept of Education, and engineered collaboration and alignment of data teams across 10 civic and community partners through Results-Based Accountability. His community work continued in the under-resourced community of East Palo Alto, California, where he launched Elevate EPA, a system of leadership development and open innovation to foster transformative projects, such as free high-speed public WiFi to over 5000 residents during the COVID19 Pandemic, City of East Palo Alto Summer Internships, East Palo Alto Community Calendar, and OPEN EPA Community Festival, the largest community festival in the history of EPA in partnership with 150+ community leaders and entrepreneurs.

Jerry's expertise in program development, management, and evaluation is well-recognized, and his unwavering commitment to organizational and community transformation is building a more inclusive and equitable future for all.

Dr. Peter Fischer received his PhD in Physics (Dr.rer.nat.) from the Technical University in Munich, Germany in 1993 on pioneering work with X-ray magnetic circular dichroism in rare earth systems and his Habilitation from the University in Würzburg, Germany in 2000 based on his pioneering work on Magnetic Soft X-ray microscopy. 

Since 2004 he is with the Material Sciences Division (MSD) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley CA. He is Senior Scientist and Principal Investigator in the Non-Equilibrium Magnetic Materials Program and serves as Deputy Division Director at MSD. His research program is focused on the use of polarized synchrotron radiation for the study of fundamental problems in magnetism. Since 2014 he is also Adjunct Professor for Physics at the University of California in Santa Cruz. 

Dr. Fischer has published so far about 230 peer reviewed papers and has given close to 350 invited presentations at national and international conferences. He was nominated as Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Magnetics Society in 2011. For his achievements of “hitting the 10nm resolution milestone with soft X-ray microscopy” he received the Klaus Halbach Award at the Advanced Light Source in 2010. 

Dr. Fischer is Fellow of the APS and IEEE.
