Howdy, I'm Jared.
I'm a staff software engineer with 14+ years building and leading production systems, now focused on applied AI and agent orchestration. These days I work independently through my own company, Eudemonia, LLC, taking on ambiguous, hard-to-scope problems for clients. I'm also an indie hacker and general tinkerer, and I run a self-hosted platform of LLM agents that handles a chunk of my engineering and home.
Builder, reader, cat trainer. Aspiring writer, woodworker, musician, and martial artist (perpetual beginner at all of it).
If you're curious, here are the things that enhance my capabilities as a human, and the things I consume.

- Growth: learning, experiencing, transcending, challenging
