Perspective
Jackson was born on August 14, 1983, and raised in Lacey/Olympia, Washington.[2]
He studied organizational communications at Eastern Washington University and graduated in 2006.[3] While attending university, Jackson was dared by one of his friends to enter a comedy contest. After graduating from Eastern, he pursued his comedy career in Hollywood, California.[4] Jackson was a semi-finalist at the 2007 Bay Area Black Comedy Competition and Festival (BABCCF), first runner-up in the 2008 Seattle International Comedy Competition, and finalist in the 2008 California Comedy Festival.[5]
When he moved back to Tacoma, Washington, he performed at numerous comedy rooms around the greater Puget Sound area. Jackson launched the “Super Funny Comedy Show” in 2010.[2] That same year, Jackson won the Bay Area Black Comedy Competition hosted by the Full Vision Arts Foundation.[5] In 2021, Jackson opened up his own comedy club called "Super Funny Comedy Club." His club is one of only four Black-owned comedy clubs in the United States and the biggest in the Pacific Northwest.[4]
Jackson has had presence on various social media platforms, but during the COVID-19 pandemic, Jackson committed to TikTok, having been convinced by Matt Rife, who also found commercial success via social media.[6]
At the end of 2024, Jackson closed the Super Funny Comedy Club with no explanation.[7] In early 2025, Jackson re-opened the club within the Courtyard Tacoma Downtown Marriott, which allowed the club to have more staffing, resources, and accommodations.[8]
In 2023, Jackson signed with CAA for representation.[9]
Jackson's debut standup special premiered on Netflix on July 8, 2025.[10] Jackson is set to star in The Office spinoff show titled The Paper.[11]
