Levi Felix, a graduate of Psychology and Ethnomusicolgy from the University of California Santa Barbara, has always been extremely active in his local community finding creative and entertaining ways to get people involved. After founding The UCSB Darfur Freedom Festival, Felix organized a coalition of over 40 non-profit organizations in a cause based celebration known as Chilla Vista: a full on community-wide sustainable music, art, film, food, and interactive festival that brought over 2,500 students, faculty, and family together to enjoy healthy living, volunteerism, and community involvement.

After managing grants both domestic and internationally at The Forest Foundation, Felix drove across the country in a green veggie powered school bus spreading the word about sustainability. Once the AP Wire picked up the story, the word of an "eco-friendly circus of activists" was profiled in such publications as Pollstar Magazine, AOL News, MSN Stop Global Warming, and even the China Post. During the summer of '07, with experience greening Bonnaroo Music Festival, Levi helped divert 60%+ waste from Rock The Bells San Francisco, using fun interactive volunteerism to educate the concert goers to recycle, compost, and reduce emissions.

After producing several short video pods, writing for Green Living Online, and consulting for companies like Reel Green Media, Levi Felix now works as the Vice President at CAUSECAST.ORG overseeing digital strategy, creative campaign development and media production fusing together social media, content and cause marketing. Felix believes deeply in the power of story, getting dirty and building grassroots movements from the bottom up, working strongly to build coalitions of change, develop campaigns that directly engage a collective generation, and instill the importance that everyone has the power to make a difference.

Levi currently resides in West Hollywood, CA but can't decide if he wants to move to Los Feliz or Venice.
