Jared Smith

Founder • Engineer • National Champion

I started Derived Athletics because of my Father. We shared a love for athletics, statistics, and engineering. He inspires everything that I do—I derive who I am from him and my family. My mission is to create a world where athletes and the people who support them can thrive both on and off the field.

As a NCAA National Champion and member of the USA National Fencing Team, I've lived the athlete's life at its highest highs and deepest challenges. That experience fuels everything we build here.

With a foundation in engineering, sports and performance analytics, I built Derived Athletics to bridge the gap between lived experience and innovative solutions. My goal is to impact the athletic space — from athletes to the tools they use — while staying rooted in the values, memories, and purpose that inspired me from the beginning.
