Born in Viet Nam, Tammy grew up in a working class immigrant household in Seattle, WA and raised by her single mother and grandmother with a house full of aunties and uncles. She has spent decades working to build a new left through grassroots movement formations trying to make history including: JustAct: Youth Action for Global Justice, Labor/Community Strategy Center, US Social Forums, and Grassroots Global Justice Alliance. Most recently, she helped to build a think tank/act tank in Los Angeles and “a working class organization on wheels” with the Labor/Community Strategy Center and Bus Riders Union. At GPP, Tammy leads our state alignment work in California and in the climate sector.
