Andrew Mattison is a Los Angeles-based property manager with a background in anthropology and European studies, and a strong interest in international security and foreign policy. He earned his bachelor’s degree from California State University, Chico, and later completed a joint Erasmus master’s program in European Culture at the University of Deusto in Spain and the University of Udine in Italy. His academic work focused on cultural identity, European systems, and the intersection of social dynamics and political structures.
Professionally, Andrew manages residential properties in the Los Angeles area, where he coordinates complex operations involving tenants, vendors, and ownership groups. His work requires navigating regulatory frameworks, resolving disputes, and maintaining strong stakeholder relationships.
Andrew maintains a strong interest in global affairs, particularly in the areas of international security, geopolitical risk, and the legal and regulatory dimensions of cross-border systems. He is especially interested in how local governance, infrastructure, and economic systems intersect with broader international dynamics.
He is seeking to deepen his engagement in foreign policy and global dialogue through the Pacific Council, where he hopes to both contribute to and learn from a community of professionals working across sectors to address complex international challenges.
