Camilo Acosta is a proud DC native and Internet technology entrepreneur. He has been interested in education reform since first learning about it in college and currently helps Democrats for Education Reform (DFER) with fundraising. The rare times he is not working on his Internet startup he is sleeping, laughing with friends, or traveling somewhere in the world. He has lived in Russia, Japan, France, and South Africa, and visited many others, though the African continent takes the cake as his favorite. He also maintains a second home base in Colombia, where his family is originally from.

Camilo is a big fan of non-political-correct-ness, attempts to change the world, country music, and his yellow lab Bentley. Prior to starting his own business, Camilo did stints at his family’s government communications company (http://www.themedianetwork.com/), the Corporate Executive Board, and New Vantage Group (venture capital). He currently serves on the Executive Board of the Sidwell Friends School Alumni Association as well as the Steering Committee of The Washington Ballet’s Jete Society.

Camilo was a Politics major at Princeton University, where his studies focused on education policy, and is a graduate of Sidwell Friends School in Washington, DC. You can follow him on Twitter.
