My name is Jared Smith, and I’m originally from Chariton County, Missouri, but I now call the Kansas City area home. I work as a loan officer with Veterans United, where I’m passionate about helping people achieve their dreams of homeownership and supporting those who’ve served our country.

I’ve always been a big sports fan—especially when it comes to baseball and cheering on the Kansas City Royals. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, whether it’s taking in a Royals game, watching my children's games, exploring nature, or just relaxing outside with my family.

Family is at the heart of everything I do. My wife and I have three wonderful children, and our home is always full of energy thanks to our pets.
