Originally born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Jack is now proud to call Utah home and is grateful for the many involvement opportunities that have allowed him to find his passion, purpose, and people here in Salt Lake City. Expanding his perspective and learning those of his peers is something Jack immensely values, gives him joy, and allows him to try to continuously grow his worldview. Jack is very excited to join the team at Common Thread, and help give back to a community that has given him so much. In his free time, Jack enjoys reading, exploring new coffee shops around town, vintage thrift stores, and being outdoors.
