In 2018, Cavenaugh and his five colleagues at Guerrilla all received the same compensation for one year, regardless of position or length of employment, to " the boss to employee ratio" and eliminate any possible gender pay gap.

Two of Cavenaugh's projects, Jolene's First Cousin and Atomic Orchard Experiment, will have units reserved for homeless people and social workers.

After working for Peace Corps in Gabon, he relocated to Portland, Oregon during the 1990s.
