Meet Jordan

Jordan was born and raised in Madison, West Virginia, in a working-class family that instilled the values of hard work, humility, and compassion. With a father who was a coal miner and a mother who drove a school bus, Jordan grew up understanding the struggles and sacrifices that working families make every day. At just 15 years old, he moved in with his grandmother to care for her, driving her to doctor’s appointments and ensuring she had the support she needed.

After graduating from Scott High School, Jordan earned a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Physiology from West Virginia University and later pursued a Master of Science in Applied Cognition and Neuroscience at the University of Texas at Dallas. Committed to service from an early age, he worked with the nonprofit Amizade in Santarém, Brazil, helping children with disabilities. Though originally on the path to becoming a doctor, Jordan found a new calling—education.

Starting as a behavior technician working with children with autism, Jordan later became a 4th grade elementary school teacher. Teaching provided firsthand experience with the challenges children and families face every day, reinforcing the need for real change. Frustrated by a government that caters to the ultra-wealthy and well-connected while leaving working-class families behind, Jordan decided to take action and run for office.

Now living in McKinney, Texas, Jordan remains deeply connected to the struggles of everyday Americans. While he does not have children of his own, he sees his students as his kids and constantly asks, what kind of future are we leaving them? This question drives his fight to create a government that works for the people—not just the powerful.

What sets Jordan apart is his working-class roots and willingness to take on corruption in Washington. He knows what it means to struggle while politicians profit, and he refuses to accept the status quo. With a commitment to restoring the voice of the working class, rooting out corruption, and working across the aisle to get things done, Jordan is ready to bring real leadership to Washington.

When not in the classroom or on the campaign trail, Jordan can be found running, training for Ironman races, or spending time with his dog, Bailey.

It’s time for Washington to work for the people who built this country—not just the wealthy and well-connected. Jordan is ready to lead that fight.
