Allen Jones

Allen Jones was born in Maple Grove, Minnesota on January 31, 1995. His parents, although divorced a few years after having him, were both highly supportive and nurturing of Jones growing up. Due to a problem with bullying, Jones and his mother decided to move to South Dakota to start over on a clean slate. He has long since fallen in love with the Black Hills, although he still comes back to Minnesota from time to time to visit his father. Jones’s interests are surprisingly diverse, while some people say athleticism and geek hobbies are exclusive, he surprises them by snowboarding during the day and playing Dungeons and Dragons by night. Jones has a special fondness for history and is an unapologetic nostalgic and has been studying all he can about world events. He also has a fondness for other cultures and takes the time to study them beyond the mere pop culture they export, although he did take a liking for Japanese anime. As an eternal optimist, what Jones sees lying ahead is a bright future, albeit one he had to work long and hard for as we all should.
