Background

About Jack Yates

As the Funding and Communications Specialist at The Mammoth Lakes Trails & Public Access Foundation (MLTPA), I collaborate with a passionate team to promote and protect the natural and recreational resources of the Eastern Sierra. I oversee the organization's online presence, fundraising campaigns, and community outreach, utilizing my skills in social media communications, video editing, and event planning. I am also the founder and Marketing Consultant of Jackrabbit Creative, a media and marketing agency that assists clients in creating and sharing engaging stories. Since 2019, I have partnered with various businesses and organizations, such as Quinn Bradlee LLC, to deliver digital media and marketing solutions, including video production, social media management, and inbound marketing. I hold a Master's degree in Media and Public Engagement from the University of Colorado Boulder, where I learned to use media as a tool for social change and civic engagement. Additionally, I have a Bachelor's degree in Film/Cinema/Video Studies and History from the University of Vermont, where I nurtured my passion for storytelling and filmmaking. I also have multiple certifications in social media and digital marketing from HubSpot Academy and the University of Vermont Continuing and Distance Education. I am a creative, motivated, and collaborative professional who enjoys exploring new ideas and challenges. I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies and to connect with individuals who share my vision of making a positive impact in the world.
