Alex does not let his disability limit his job choices
Alex Jackson uses a power chair due to a spinal cord injury, but he has never let this affect his daily outlook on life.
His passion for inclusion ignited when he worked for the radio station at College of Charleston, where they partnered with him to help make all media buildings and the radio station accessible.
Alex currently works for the US Navy Corporate Communications and Public Affairs office, an employer he says “is very open to any requests for accommodations.”
His dream is to one day own a wheelchair-accessible transportation company of his own.
