Fighting for our future.

 
Meet Daniel

Meet Daniel

Daniel Wang has called Austin home since he was just one year old. He was raised here alongside his younger sister and Austin is the only home he’s ever known. Daniel never planned on running for anything, but his fight is personal: protecting the city that invested in his family and making sure ordinary people can still build a life here.

A proud product of Austin public schools, Daniel graduated from the Liberal Arts and Science Academy (LASA) and went on to MIT, where he planned to pursue a life in math and teaching. Inspired by public servants who led with integrity, he instead chose a path of service, earning his law degree from Harvard Law School and returning home to put his skills to work. In his day job, Daniel works in electricity regulation, helping ensure reliability and holding companies accountable to the rules that keep the lights on.

 

He’s also a longtime volunteer in the community, including with the Travis County Democratic Party, the Texas Democratic Party voter protection program, United Way of Greater Austin, the Austin LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce, and the Austin Chinese-American Network.​

Daniel serves on the Travis Central Appraisal District Board of Directors, where he focuses on equity and fairness for everyday taxpayers while protecting stable funding for neighborhood public schools and local services. He won his seat by defeating Matt Mackowiak, a well-connected MAGA operative. On the Board, he successfully led the fight against Tesla’s attempt to dodge its fair share of property taxes, and he brings that same backbone to every fight: stand up to powerful interests, follow the facts, and deliver practical results.
