Alex Frank

Commissioner

Alex joined the BPAC in January 2022. Born and raised in Oakland, his perspective includes a number of years living, walking, and riding bikes in other cities and countries around the world. His educational background is in Economics, Public Policy, and Urban Development. He sees bicycles as one tool to help economically disadvantaged people gain a competitive edge and enjoy a fun, healthy way of getting around. His main focus is on road safety and assurance as a means to get people to try modes of transit outside of driving. His hope is this will help create more caring and thriving neighborhoods in Oakland. Through his work with the non-profit Campmobility.org he spends a great deal of time walking, riding and taking transit throughout Oakland, and East Oakland in particular. He is usually smiling and loves to meet new people, so feel free to reach out to him, or waive if you see him in your neighborhood.
