He just recently graduated with his masters degree and is currently going for his PHD!

Jaxson is a life long best friend of mine. We have a lot of hobbies in common and both love spending time playing games. Jaxson's worn a lot of hats through out his career. From a certified forklift driver to a Media blaster for industrial parts. I admired Jaxson for his dedication to what ever craft he was doing at that time. His drive to optimize his work always inspired me from his route management at FedEx to being the one of the best forklift operators in his warehouse. He always had a driving passion to be very good at what he was doing in the most time efficient way possible. I'm extremely grateful to all the fun and inspirational times we had together and I look forward to more in the future!
