Hey, I'm Jared, but
you can call me Jardo.

I’m an experienced software developer, consultant, open-source maintainer, surfer, and metal head. I work with organizations all over the world to help them learn from the past and make the most of their technology.

I learned to program at about ten years old and built games through my teen years. I found web development, Ruby on Rails, and eCommerce in my early twenties and never looked back. I’ve built everything from high-performance payment platforms to rich eCommerce experience to complex backend integrations.

The bulk of my career has been in consulting. As a consultant I’ve performed huge platform migrations, led teams through organizational turmoil, and recovered projects from the brink of disaster. Each new client is a new learning opportunity and a chance to apply my unique experience.

Today, I run Super Good. We’re a team of software specialists that partner with organizations to leverage the software industry’s neglected potential to build better software and build software better. We specialize in eCommerce, web applications, and Ruby on Rails.

When not in front of a computer, you’ll find me lugging my surfboards to remote beaches around the Pacific Northwest, playing hockey, and enjoying the latest metal records.
