He was a free-spirited, independent, and ambitious man, who loved to travel, and who made friends everywhere he went.

He would scour the racks at Savers, take a piece of clothing, and turn it into something unique. He also designed t-shirts, hair wraps, and hats that he would later sell online. Jai-Juan was a loveable person who genuinely cared about those around him.
