Jared's obsession with copywriting began as soon as he was old enough to read. He still remembers stealing copies of J. Peterman, Things You Never Knew Existed, The Sharper Image, and Hammacher Schlemmer from the mail and stashing them underneath his mattress.

Years later, when he returned from studying English at university, the collection was missing. Even now he wonders what his mother thought when she found his collection of catalogues.

Therefore, it is no surprise that today Jared writes engaging product descriptions, travel narratives, food articles, and educational content. He writes for commonly known brands, travel sites, business sites, food blogs and regional leaders in education.

Jared knows the key to creating great content is understanding what clients want. Consequently, he asks the significant questions to create clean, concise and actionable content.
