Hi, I’m Jared Rodriguez!

The trust of a city street is formed over time from many, many little public sidewalk contacts... Most of it is ostensibly trivial but the sum is not trivial at all.

I live in the Hudson Valley of New York with my family. I chose to live in a Hudson Valley rivertown due to its train access, a diverse and dense population, history, architecture and of course, its main street and incredible walkability. I’m a lifelong Hudson Valley-phile. Though it’s a work in progress, the region has a bright future that I’m dedicated to making real and accessible to all residents.
