Over the course of more than three decades spent working in education, Dan Albert Jr. was a teacher, coach and activities director before becoming a district administrator. In June 2016, he retired as the associate superintendent of business services with the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District. A native of Monterey, he attended local public schools. Albert also volunteered for various community organizations, such as the Fort Ord Reuse Authority, the Committee to Restore Monterey Peninsula Schools, the Educational Foundation of Monterey Peninsula, the Rotary Club of Monterey, and the Lyceum of Monterey.
Albert's leadership approach is to be collaborative, equitable, strategic, and accountable. He says he strives to build consensus around common goals and to employ strategies that produce measurable results. Albert had a real-life role model to look to. His father, Dan Albert Sr., served 10 terms as mayor from 1986 to 2006 and two terms before that on the City Council from 1979 to 1986. “My father has obviously been an influence,” says Albert Jr. “I’m proud of him and his accomplishments.” (Source: Monterey County Weekly)
In 2022, when Mayor Clyde Roberson announced that he wouldn’t seek reelection, Albert ran for mayor of Monterey. To do so, Albert had to give up his council seat. Despite receiving Roberson’s endorsement, Albert was defeated by fellow Councilmember Tyller Williamson in the Nov. 8, 2022, general election.
First elected: November 2016
Alma mater: San Jose State University (bachelor’s degree, industrial arts; master’s degree, educational leadership).
Notable quote: “Over the last couple of years we have opened up certain areas of zones that use to be light industry or business, and we've tried to impact them by putting housing in those areas.” (Source: KSBW)
