Danny Arguetty has joined the Campus Sustainability Fund (CSF) as Program Director. CSF, housed within and closely collaborating with UW Sustainability, is thrilled to welcome him. Danny is excited to co-lead the fund with CSF’s student staff and committee, championing the mission of justice-centered sustainability, recognizing the disproportionate negative impact of climate change on communities of color, particularly Black and Indigenous peoples.
Previously, Danny supported international students at Northeastern University–Seattle through mental health and wellness initiatives. Before that, he worked at UW Recreation as Mindfulness Manager, where he collaborated with students to create inclusive classes and workshops, build a yoga teacher training program, and advance diversity, equity, and inclusion within the UW mindfulness community. He also taught a quarterly academic course (BeReal) on well-being, stress management, coping strategies and emotional regulation.
Danny holds degrees in graphic/web design, and education, and has extensively studied yoga philosophy and physiology, wellness, nutrition, and sustainability. In his free time, he enjoys staying active through running, cycling, hiking, swimming, gym workouts, and urban walks. He also loves connecting with friends and family, being an uncle, savoring the arts, enjoying sunny day picnics, and volunteering in the community with urban farms and trash clean-ups.
