About

Jared is an urban planner passionate about the intersection of the built environment and people. His experience has led him to work in academia, commercial real estate development, and public sector planning. Jared believes that, given the right tools, everyday people can make decisions about the future of the built environment. Jared works to ensure that everyday people understand have those right tools whether they be zoning code explained in plain language, knowing the impacts of parking on building costs and affordability, or simply having a robust discussion about change.

Jared doesn’t just think about places and how people interact with them professionally. One of his favorite activities is traveling and getting lost with intention. He calls it urban exploration, letting the city guide him to a destination. He also enjoys photography, eating at new restaurants, and spending long hours in galleries and museums.
