Jake Wood is the CEO of [Team Rubicon](https://teamrubiconusa.org/), a global nonprofit he co-founded in 2010. Team Rubicon serves communities by mobilizing veterans to continue their service, leveraging their skills and experience to help people prepare, respond, and recover from disasters and humanitarian crises.
