👋 Howdy — I'm Jared.
Builder. Texan. Dad of three girls. Owner of three dachshunds who have zero respect for personal boundaries. Yes, three girls and three wiener dogs. Wasn't the plan but here we are. Happily married to Sam, who deserves a medal. Life is loud, the house is chaos, and I wouldn't change a thing (most days).
I've spent the last decade building products and leading teams. I cofounded WPForms, a form builder powering over 6 million websites, along with WP Mail SMTP, SendLayer, and a few others.
My approach has always been the same. Find real problems, strip out the complexity, and make it stupid simple. The kind of thing your mom could use without FaceTiming you.
These days I'm back in the saddle. New chapter. Back to building. Looking for problems worth solving, and going deep on AI.
Always happy to meet good people. Talk shop, swap ideas, or just shoot the shit. Reach out anytime.
