The event will be held at the University of California, Riverside in CHASS Interdisciplinary South 1109 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Al Zelinka is the City Manager of Riverside, the City of Arts & Innovation. Al’s professional goal is to make a difference in communities, and this aspiration drives his work on behalf of Riverside’s elected leaders, residents, businesses, and staff. His public service roles during the past decade include: Assistant City Manager, and Community Development Director for the City of Riverside; and Community Development Director and Planning Manager for the City of Fullerton.

“As a public policy major concentrating in urban/environmental policy this will be an excellent opportunity to further my understanding of what I can accomplish in this field,” said Genevieve Chacon, a third-year public policy major.
