Mona Das is a powerful force for environmental justice, racial equity, housing affordability, and economic fairness in Washington. Born to Indian parents who immigrated to the United States when she was 8 months old and only six dollars in their pockets, Das’s lived experience drives her to dismantle barriers for marginalized people in every aspect of her work and life. Driven by a strong public service ethic and desire to create an equitable and sustainable society, Das ran for State Senate in 2018, and against all odds, WON!  

Through her successful campaign and election for Washington State Senate, Mona Das experienced first-hand what it’s like to be a marginalized voice shouting to be heard in the echo-chamber of the traditional, political elite. Along her journey, she met a handful of other courageous BIPOC women who, like her, were challenging the status quo. Thus in 2022, she decided not to run for office as she felt called to create greater change from outside of the system. Bad Ass Women Doing Kick Ass Shit (BAWDKAS) was born as a coming together of these women to share their unique, but similar, narratives. The film has won numerous awards including two Telly Awards, an Impact Docs Award, and an award from the Accolade Global Film Competition.

Mona has a bachelor’s degree in psychology, an MBA in sustainable business and attended the Women’s Campaign School at Yale University. For the last 20 years, she has owned and operated MOXY Money LLC, which consults on fundraising techniques, regardless of whether you’re a non-profit, first time candidate or experienced elected official.

As a Washington State Senator, Das was a leader in environmental policy, affordable housing, community building, and equitable representation movements. One of her biggest successes during her term as State Senator was championing and passing Senate Bill 5022, which bans the manufacture, sale and distribution of certain expanded polystyrene products and single-use plastics in Washington state. Not surprisingly, Das loves spending time outdoors and traveling, having visited 37 countries. Most of all, she is a proud auntie to two nephews.

“Before I started working with Senator Das, fundraising was one of my least favorite things to do when it came to running my campaign. Thanks to her innovative ways to raise money while running for office, I’ve had so much fun and have made so much money fundraising, that I now feel confident in an area that previously intimidated me. And her tips WORK! With the strategies Senator Das provides, the course is not only an investment in your campaign – it pays for itself immediately with the money you’ll raise. I highly recommend it!”
