Jake Conroy: Digital Desing Coordinator at the Rainforest Action Network

Jake Conroy is a long-time activist, designer, and writer.  He has been involved in a wide range of grassroots activism since 1995. His dedication to change is almost matched for his desire to make it look good. Over the last 15 years, Jake has honed his skills in the fine arts, print and digital design in order to better convey messages of change to the general public in an exciting, appealing and educational way.

Jake is also a co-founder of Ocean Defense International, and helped lead the first ever disruption of a whale hunt in US coastal waters. He also helped build the foundation of Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty USA (SHAC USA), one of the most successful grassroots animal rights campaigns in history. Due to his involvement with SHAC USA, he was a co-defendant in the SHAC7 case and was sentenced to 48 months in federal prison.
