Program Coordinator

Jaden was born and raised in Greenville, SC. He moved to the Nicholtown community in 2016 and started going to éleos as a student playing basketball at open gym. From 2016-2018 he was a student, and after finishing school he became a mentor at Eeos for 1 year. He then moved to Dallas, GA, and started driving trucks. Over time, he realized this wasn't his passion, and that his passion was to help youth develop into great leaders. In 2023 he moved back to Greenville, SC, and joined the Eleos team. Jaden also has a wife and 3 amazing kids. He enjoys playing basketball with the students and hanging out.
