In a LinkedIn post, Jared said, “I am so honored to be nominated and a recipient of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority Accessibility Advancement Award in Innovation. Thank you Sarah Wyss, AICP and the entire NYCT Operations Planning Senior Leadership team for selecting me for this award and for the endless support of the work I love to do each and every day. While I never thought my efforts in ensuring accessible alternatives for all passengers during planned service changes would land me this achievement, I’m humbled that I’ve been recognized.”
