Humans of Northwood: Carter Jackson ‘26

“My biggest fear as a kid? Spiders. Still afraid of them to this day.

“I started playing soccer because of my brother. When I was a little boy, he started playing soccer before I could walk or talk, so I started playing it after him when I was old enough. I have played other sports—I played basketball in fifth grade. And you know, the person who has the biggest influence on me at Northwood is definitely Coach Moodey. He gives really good lessons and really pushes me to be a better person every day.  My biggest worry coming to Northwood? Honestly, just not being able to fit in.”

As told to Colten Murphy ’26. Photo by Mr. Michael Aldridge.
