Cameron Scherer

Cofounder & Talent Relations Lead, YIMBY Democrats for America

Cameron Scherer is a civic tech enthusiast, urbanist, and proud everywoman behind the scenes at YIMBY Democrats for America—helping out with everything from speaker communications to graphic design. In her free time, she’s a teaching assistant for How San Francisco Government Works, a crash course in local politics run by CivLab, and the creator of Civic Compass, a web app that helps demystify SF’s bureaucratic maze.

With a background in both tech and international development, Cameron is obsessed with making systems—whether city governments or product workflows—more transparent, efficient, and pro-housing. She has already promised her brother that her speech at his wedding will not reference zoning reform in any way.
