Jared has been with Area 13 Films since 2001. How? A chance encounter with the founder at a little restaurant we like to call Uno's in Ellicott City. His love for movies kinda rubs off quickly. With credits on both sides of the camera, his transition to cameraman was inevitable. You saw Operation: Senior Week right? In addition to Operation: Senior Week, Jared played the Killer in the original Corner of the Dead. After many bouts with falling plywood and being thrown off a deck (lots and lots of takes for saftey's sake), it was evident that he should have been a stuntman. With camera credits in Goatbusters, he solidified his position within Area 13. Much of My Show is Better than Your Show was spent on hiatus in Florida. He returned to Maryland just in time to be in the shows finale and have a whole speaking line in "Action Priest" and 3 lines in "The World Championship of Women's Beach Volleyball". Jared is currently working toward a master's degree in Publications Design from The University of Baltimore.
