Jared grew up in a mixed heritage family in the Rust Belt (Ohio) until age nine. From nine to twenty two, he grew up in the Bible Belt (North Carolina) and was the first in his family to graduate from University. He is grateful for the privilege to act, write, and produce. Fun facts about his name: Jared's slavic name is Jaro, which is a slavic nickname for Jaroslav which translates to "furious glory" or "glorious spring." Variants of Polivka mean "soup" in Czech, "sauce" in Ukrainian and "gravy" in Russian.
