Featured Alumni- Jackson Morris

After graduating from CAK in 2019, Jackson earned his degree in Supply Chain Management with a Collateral in Sales from the University of Tennessee Knoxville in May 2023. Since then, Jackson has accepted a position at PepsiCo's Frito-Lay Headquarters in Plano, TX. In his role as a project manager, he's been working on implementing a new warehousing agenda across Frito-Lay warehouses nationwide. Since July, he has worked in CA, MA, OH, GA, and TX.

In his free time, Jackson enjoys exercising, watching sporting events and movies, listening to music, spending quality time with friends and family, and attending church. He travels back to Knoxville as often as possible to visit and watch UT sporting events. Reflecting on his time at CAK, Jackson enjoyed time spent with friends in the cafeteria, on the football field and basketball court, and after school. He said, “I am very grateful for some of the lifelong friendships I built during my time at CAK. I am blessed to have parents who supported me and saw the value in having a private Christian education. I would not be where I am today if it were not for my time at the Christian Academy of Knoxville. CAK fully prepared me for my time at The University of Tennessee Knoxville and beyond and will always hold a special place in my heart!”
