Jackson was always destined for a career in the sciences. Today he works with molecular chemistry, pressure thermodynamics and a layer of applied sociology and psychology.

That’s when he’s not worrying about business development, entrepreneurial economics, leadership and motivation, and the inevitable need for branding, marketing and social media management, community engagement and facilitating law enforcement daily briefing sessions.

After all, Jackson is the founder and owner of a coffee shop, and he can’t imagine doing anything else.
