Wesley Kandel

Jared was by far one of the most talented and faithful students I met at Full Sail University. His eye for design was surpassed only by his strength of character and work ethic.

Audrey K. Chisholm

Jared is the most talented graphic designer I have ever worked with! Not only does he have technical skill, but he understands the importance of deadlines in business and always completes projects on time. He is reliable, which is a characteristic that is greatly valued in any professional. I give him my highest recommendation and look forward to working with him for many years to come.
