Jordan’s parents struggled as children. He did not see much of their struggle as they worked too hard to ensure he and his brother had a better chance at life. But he always understood the struggles that they faced growing up. This made him realize that how grateful he is for the lifestyle that his parents provided it.

According to Jordan Alexander King, being a successful entrepreneur, he is quite ambitious and competitive. This competitiveness of his comes from playing sports.

“Teachers always pushed me to go into sports never into academics. I once had a teacher that thought they did me a favour by giving me a 60% on my culminating. The teacher then asked me what my other grades were which were in the high-70s to mid-80 range (he never even read it he just looked at me and thought I was a 60% student),” he adds. “But even there, I was met with struggles. I had a coach tell me that the hockey team was not a “group home” insinuating I did not have a home or family”. In spite of facing prejudices all his life, Jordan Alexander King never gave up and instead, kept faith in himself and his abilities.
