Jorge Martinez

Jorge is a CLAM board member who also serves on the Board Development Committee. He grew up in Inverness and Point Reyes, mostly on dairy ranches. After the closing of the Giacomini Dairy Ranch in Point Reyes, his family was left without a job or a home, as their employer provided housing for agricultural employees. Unable to find an affordable house in West Marin, they moved to Petaluma and commuted daily to Point Reyes Station for work and school. In 2005, his family qualified for EAH housing Point Reyes Affordable Homes, thanks to the ongoing effort and commitment of the community to provide affordable housing for working families. After graduating from Tomales High School, he attended Santa Rosa Junior College and later graduated from Sacramento State University’s Engineering Department with a degree in Construction Management and a B.S. in Administration. Jorge works for Inverness Gardening Service. He is actively involved locally with West Marin Standing Together and Abriendo Caminos.
