Sometimes people don’t recognize Jared today because they aren’t used to the beardless face. But it’s what he looked like the last time we saw him in San Diego (2012). So we’re looking forward to having him back.

Jared uses WordPress to help businesses and individuals achieve their goals efficiently and effectively. He also maintains plugins available on WordPress.org, helpful scripts on GitHub, and is a core contributor to bbPress and the Genesis Framework. When Jared isn’t knee deep in code he regularly attends and speaks at WordCamps around the country each year.

He’s also a proud Texan.
