An Arizona native, Jared was born in Phoenix at Maricopa County Hospital during Super Bowl XXI. He has lived in Arizona all his life outside a brief stint in Longmont, CO. After attending Arizona State University on an academic scholarship, he quickly found a home in the mortgage industry for, at the time, the largest mortgage company and bank in the United States. It was there he discovered his love of finance, working for the bank’s Platinum Servicing team with high-net-worth clients, coordinating with licensed financial advisors and investment bankers.

After nearly 6 years, he decided he’d be of more value at a smaller company, helping every day homeowners utilize the strategies he’d helped wealthy clients execute using their real estate and mortgage options. For the last 9 years, he’s worked almost exclusively with US Veterans while managing 15-20 mortgage originators; and teaching them the importance and value in understanding their clients’ full financial picture rather than simply recommending a one-size-fits-all solution.

Jared is married and father to 6- and 1-year old sons. He also owns & operates 2 small retail businesses outside of being a licensed mortgage loan officer. When he’s not working, he’s likely spending time with his family and friends traveling or at local events, the movies, the arcade, etc.
