About Me

I am Jordan Gearlds. I am a senior at Blue Ridge High School, class of 2021. Throughout my school career I have been in band and softball for 7 years. I have also participated in theater, choir and BACC for the past 2 years. One of my greatest accomplishments was in band. In 2018 we got to go to Washington DC to play in the Memorial Day parade. In addition I have made the high honor roll the past 3 years and am currently working my way to another year of being on high honor roll. I have worked at Portillos since June 2019 and Target since July 2020. I hope to go to EIU or Eureka and earn a degree in criminal justice. After that I hope to do something in the forensics field. One of my favorite quotes is “Never dull your sparkle.” I was introduced to this quote by one of my teachers in 7th or 8th grade and the reason I like it so much is because it reminds me to never stop being unique. Thank you to the facilitators, investors, and all our other supporters for believing in us.
