A Builder. A Family Man. A Californian. Matthew Chase Levy is a family man from Oakland, a physicist, and a builder who believes California's greatest strength has always been its ability to turn bold ideas into real progress. He's a political outsider — and that's the point. Matthew is running for Governor because he's worried about the same things you are: whether families can afford to stay here, whether our kids' schools are getting stronger, and whether our state is planning for the future or just reacting to the next headline. Matthew has spent his career solving hard problems and thinking long-term. That's the common-sense approach California needs. It's later than we think, but never too late to lead.
