Jared is the poster child for Zionism and what is expected for what it takes from making Aliyah (To immigrate to Israel from the outside world). He is a man of conviction and purpose who moved to Israel when he was a teenager. A belief in the country and the peoplehood he wanted to be a part of this and joined the military, becoming a paratrooper where he still serves as an officer today. 

Jared is a man who walks the walk and leads by example in every aspect of his life. He is living on a kibbutz, a socialist enterprise that became famous even before Israel became a country and is part of the board of directors. He works with the youth in the region and sets up programming that creates a dialogue between various parts of Israel. He also assists the regional council in building relationships with partner cities and regions from around the world to have a connection with the people of the Negev. The candor and authenticity are what people are drawn into with Jared.
