Hello, I'm Jared
I’m a self-taught full-stack web developer with a background in e-commerce and building tools that improve team efficiency. I focus on clean, practical solutions that work out of the box, and I enjoy turning complex problems into simple, readable, and usable code.
A bit more about me
“When I’m not coding, you’ll probably find me on the move—running, holding a yoga pose, or exploring a new trail. I love capturing photos of the small, strange, and beautiful things I come across outdoors. At home, I have a soft spot for life’s little ‘treasures’—whether it’s the next package at my doorstep, collecting a few dumpster fires for laughs, or firing up the PlayStation. These hobbies keep me curious, lighthearted, and grounded—qualities I bring back into my work and the communities I’m part of.”
Alkaline Theme
Alkaline is my most recent project, and one I’m especially proud of. After months of work, I’ve built a sleek, Astro-powered theme designed for speed, clarity, all using minimal JavaScript. It comes with 14 built-in color themes, multiple layouts, 24 pre-built components, and baked-in SEO optimizations—all while keeping dependencies light. Built with a performance-first, semantic HTML approach, Alkaline consistently scores 100 in Lighthouse audits right out of the box. In fact, this very website was built with Alkaline.
