About Jack
Where did you grow up?
I grew up in the suburbs of Pittsburgh. In high school we actually won the PA 6A state championship in football my senior year. It’s not something I go around bragging about, but it does come up surprisingly often. Usually because I bring it up.
What is your favorite sports team?
The Steelers, no question. I've been watching them my whole life. Some of my favorite memories are from games growing up, hearing "Renegade" blast through the stadium when they needed a big defensive stop.
Who is your favorite music artist/band?
I listen to a lot of everything, but my favorite has to be late 90s/early 2000s rock. Anytime blink-182, Third Eye Blind, Sublime, Weezer, or Foo Fighters comes on, I can't skip it.
