Keynote Conversation with The City of San Jose

Mayor

City of San Jose

Matt Mahan

KEYNOTE

City of San Jose

Matt Mahan is the 66th Mayor of San José. He was raised in Watsonville, California by working parents, a school teacher and a letter carrier, who taught Matt and his sisters to value hard work, the importance of education, and the power of community. His love for San José was ignited early on when he decided to make the long, often four-hour-a-day commute by bus to San José to attend Bellarmine College Prep.

Matt went on to attend Harvard University, where he served as student body president and graduated magna cum laude before joining the Teach for America program, where he taught English and History at George Joseph Middle School in Alum Rock, San Jose. Matt went on to the business world, where he founded and served as CEO of two civic tech companies dedicated to empowering neighborhoods and holding government accountable.

These core tenets have remained key to his policy priorities – both during his time as District 10 Councilmember and now as San Jose Mayor. Matt decided to run for San José’s top office in 2022 because he knew local government needed significant reform to get back to basics and deliver results on homelessness, public safety and housing affordability. Since taking office, Matt has led the city to build more housing, expand solutions to homelessness that have reduced the number of people living on our streets, and brought crime rates down to historic lows. His efforts to bring AI tools and performance management practices into City Hall have yielded a more efficient and accountable government.

Mayor Matt Mahan, his wife Silvia, and their two young children live in the Almaden neighborhood.
