Ifeoma Ozoma

Director of Technology Policy, Kapor Center Advocacy. After two years working on public policy at Pinterest, Ifeoma Ozoma resigned and spoke about gender and race discrimination she experienced at the company. She subsequently began a consulting firm called Earthseed and has worked to advocate for whistleblower protection legislation and other worker protections in the technology industry. At Earthseed, she co-sponsored the Silenced No More Act in California.. This legislation, signed into law in 2021, allows workers to share information about harassment and discrimination, regardless of a nondisclosure or nondisparagement agreement. Additionally, Ifeoma co-founded the Transparency in Employment Agreements Coalition, which leveraged shareholder engagement to expand the protections of California’s Silenced No More Act globally, leading to reforms at Salesforce, Apple, Alphabet, Expensify, Twilio, and Microsoft.
Ifeoma also held public policy and government relations roles at Google, Facebook, and Pinterest and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Yale University. Outside of work, Ifeoma loves time with her family on their hobby farm in New Mexico. When she’s not busy with their 4 dogs, goats, chickens, rabbits, innumerable fruit trees, and berry bushes, she can be found inside playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
