Jared and his wife have three daughters, and when they’re not helping them with homework, school projects, or running them back and forth to dance recitals and gymnastics, they spend as much of their free time as possible going on bike rides, hiking, camping, watching movies, going out for ice cream, dancing, or making each other laugh. Jared joined LevitZacks in 2011.
