Facilities and Land Stewardship Specialist Jake Shapiro grew up in Lucas Valley. He grew up hiking and exploring around Marin and the rest of Northern California with his family. This fostered a love and appreciation for these beautiful ecosystems. The love of the outdoors encouraged a career in property maintenance and landscape work. Jake received a Bachelor of Science degree in history from Oregon State University where he also worked for the school's forestry laboratory. Jake returned to Marin where he worked for Marin County Parks and Open Space on the trails crew prior to joining the team at All Hands Ecology.
