Jackson
He/him Straight 27 St.Louis Park
About them: Jackson is always himself. That’s the most succinct way I can describe him. He is one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met. You never have to guess what he’s thinking, or wonder what is going on in his head. If you get the chance to meet him you’ll see what I mean. He’s always got an excited smile on his face, and he always means it.
What you should know about them:
He is an incredibly driven person, in all aspects of his life. He is always excited about a new opportunity at work, planning a trip with friends, or spending time with his family. He’s always ready and willing to go the extra mile, even when it’s not expected of him.
What’s a good memory you have of them?
A good memory I have of Jackson is when we were traveling together in Australia. We had just taken a flight out into the outback, and when we arrived, Jackson talked to some locals and got us on a tour where we got to see some crazy landscapes and animals. He is great at finding spots off the beaten track, and it was a great addition to the trip.
What’s something they’re proud of?
One thing Jackson would be pretty proud of is his career to this point. His work is important in his life, and something that he has found some significant success in. He is not a bragger, but I am, and I’m writing this for him so here goes. In college, Jackson had an idea. He thought that people living near stadiums or sporting events should have a platform to sell parking in their driveway, and people going to the games should have reliable places to park that they could book in advance. Well that idea became a business, then it became an app, and then it grew into an entire parking company. Jackson recently sold his idea and now works at the company that bought it while dreaming up new solutions.
Interests?
Staying active (Pickleball, tennis, going to the gym)
Watching, and quoting, Christopher Nolan movies
Trying new foods and new places (travel is a must)What animal would they be?
Jackson would probably be a Clownfish. Which may sound bad, but they’re actually pretty impressive fish! Like them, Jackson shows an exceptional devotion to his community and family, he is pretty funny, and he loves helping others and allowing them to help him in return. That being said he also has some questionable fashion choices, making him the perfect Clownfish.
What would they be famous for?
His borderline concerning knowledge of 90’s and early 00’s rock music. I’m not sure there is a rock band during that time that Jackson couldn’t identify and hum a few songs from. He does branch out a fair bit, so his playlists are quite eclectic, but his knowledge of that time is unmatched.
Who would they be good with?
Jackson would be great with someone that is always up for a challenge, but can also go with the flow. Someone with a passion and excitement for life! He could use some level-headedness to complement his big dreams. His partner would also be someone that speaks their mind and stands up for what they believe in.
