“I’m not here by chance,” says Andenet Emiru, staff advisor designate to the Regents. “I’ve had so many mentors and people who made sacrifices to help me get where I am. I feel a real responsibility to pay it forward.”
Andenet’s journey to the University of California has spanned a significant geographical distance — from his childhood in Ethiopia to his young adulthood in Minnesota to Sacramento, California, where he is currently the director of external partnerships & projects at UC Health’s Center for Data-driven Insights and Innovation (CDI2).
Still, his values haven’t strayed from those he learned as a child, as the son of two hardworking parents whose journeys inspired his own.
