Jared is a Research Scientist and the Co-Founder & CEO of NatureQuant, a purpose-driven company out to quantify nature and promote increased nature exposure to help the world live a healthier, longer life.

Jared shares the science of getting outside and the benefits of spending time in nature. He also discussed NatureQuant's applications, recently named to Fast Company’s Next Big Things In Tech For 2022, including NatureScore, which measures the quality of greenspace in a given area, and NatureDose, which allows people to track how much time they spend outside.

Before founding NatureQuant, Jared was a data scientist using statistical modeling techniques to provide advisory services in finance, energy, and real estate applications. He is a published author and speaker on ERISA laws and plans. He’s a Yale University graduate with a B.A. in Economics and a B.A. in Cognitive Science and is a FINRA-registered securities principal and a Chartered Financial Analyst. He is also a former professional endurance athlete who competed in weeklong races of 700+ miles.

Just a few of the golden takeaways Jared shares in this episode are the value of spending more time in nature, finding a passion that makes you excited to get out of bed in the morning, and how to find adventure in your own backyard.
