Originally from a ski town in Idaho, she spent her high school years in rural Illinois.

Jordan has many different hobbies, including: rock climbing, reading, watching TV, making horrible puns, and going to the movies. In addition, she follows street art religiously, is addicted to the internet, and Obi Wan is her only hope. Her favorite way to keep up with news is via Reddit, and her Klout score fluctuates between a 58 and 61.

Jordan has many different hopes and dreams right now, especially when it comes to a career. One dream is to work for Entertainment Weekly, covering the movies and TV shows she spends so much time watching.
