Jared was a proud member of the Military Intelligence Corps in the US Army and a member of the 45^th Infantry Brigade Combat Team for the Oklahoma National Guard. After serving in the Military for six years, Jared and his wife, Shasta, moved back to Duncan in 2013, where they are raising their two girls, Scarlett and India.
