About this Event
Come join us in the next installment of our series: Scoop with a Supe! We learn the goings-on of SF politics from the supervisors directly, getting the inside scoop on their policy priorities and confronting complex issues head-on.
This town hall style event is a great way to connect with the Board of Supervisors and others in your community. Most tickets include the price of a scoop of ice cream built in, provided by Smitten Ice Cream! And thank you to Mission Local for its partnership and moderation from editor Joe Eskenazi!

Supervisor Danny Sauter represents District 3, which comprises San Francisco’s incredible northeastern neighborhoods including the Barbary Coast & Northern Waterfront, Chinatown, Lower Nob Hill, Financial District, Fisherman’s Wharf, Jackson Square, Nob Hill, North Beach, Polk Gulch, Russian Hill, Telegraph Hill, and Union Square.
Danny has a deep background in District 3’s neighborhoods, including serving on the board of his neighborhood association, North Beach Neighbors, for more than 8 years. During this time, he started and ran the North Beach Farmers Market, coordinated a free delivery service to support restaurants during the pandemic, and organized neighborhood cleanups. He served as the first Housing Chair of the San Francisco Sierra Club and as the District 3 Director of the Eastern Neighborhoods Democratic Club.
Prior to being elected to office, Danny was the Executive Director of San Francisco Neighborhood Centers Together, a citywide coalition of community centers serving youth and older adults. Through this work, he strengthened community centers, including Cameron House in Chinatown and TEL HI Neighborhood Center in North Beach. Danny also was the co-founder of Bamboo, a marketing agency which he founded in District 3 and grew from 2 to 50 employees.
Danny grew up in the Midwest with dreams of moving to San Francisco for its opportunities and dynamic culture. Danny’s passion for community service started at a young age. His father was a labor lawyer working with unions while his mother taught at his high school and directed the community service program for students.
Danny studied at Miami University and graduated with a major in Marketing and dual-minors in Entrepreneurship and Chinese. He studied abroad in China during college and learned Mandarin. He has since taken Cantonese classes and been active in the Save Cantonese movement at City College.
Danny and his wife have lived in North Beach for more than a decade. When he’s not working on community issues, Danny enjoys exploring San Francisco’s bookstores and coffee shops, traversing the city by Muni, and cheering on the Giants.

Smitten Ice Cream serves the freshest, creamiest ice cream on the planet. Known for its ultra-smooth texture and craveable flavors, Smitten keeps things fresh by offering ever-evolving flavors alongside beloved classics.
Founded in San Francisco by Robyn Sue Fisher, Smitten began with a simple belief — ice cream tastes better when it’s made fresh. Robyn Sue invented and patented a machine that freezes ice cream in about 90 seconds, taking it straight to the streets. In 2017, she brought on Brooke Mosley, and together they worked together to develop a proprietary ice cream base and continued to craft even more nostalgic, unexpected flavors and experiences. In 2024, Robyn handed the reins to Brooke, ushering in the next chapter of Smitten.
Praised by Vogue as “the freshest, if not the best, ice cream on Earth,” and featured by Food & Wine, The Infatuation, Forbes, Wired, and TechCrunch, Smitten operates popular scoop shops in San Francisco and San Jose, along with a thriving catering business — and continues to find new ways to surprise and delight.
