Elijah met Minu in a political science class that he took as an easy way to complete three credits. When he heard Minu was running and learned more about his beliefs, he was so inspired that he decided to get involved. As campaign manager, he is in charge of organizing events, fundraising, managing interns, and running the campaign's social media.

While Yang and the rest of the family were originally surprised when Minu said he was running for city council, it only took her a little while to realize that this is something he has been passionate about and working towards his entire life. She believes that her brother has all the qulaities that are needed to represent thier comminity and is willing to help his campaign in any way she can.

Hannah first met Minu when she was a sophomore in high school. They have worked together on several different community outreach projects in high school and when he reached out to her about helping in the campaign, it felt very natural that they would team up on this new endevour.
