A Texas native, Jordan spends the majority of his time writing articles and being broiled alive by the hateful sun. Like all other great men, Jordan is extremely humble regarding his abundant excellence and devastating good looks. When able, he enjoys spending time at his local arcade.
By night, Jordan takes his reckless disregard for the haters public by spitting sick verses under the Hip-hop pseudonym JPHONIC. He is also the lead singer and songwriter for folktronica duo Maniac Robot, whose debut EP Superior Vena Cava is now available for zero dollars.
