Born on December 29, 2009, he was the son of J.D. Jordan and Jessica Morris Hilton. Paxton was a beloved student at CA Gray Junior High, where he was an active and enthusiastic member of the STEM-X program, a testament to his curiosity and love for learning. Known for his sharp mind and an insatiable passion for technology, Paxton enjoyed creating content on YouTube and connecting with friends and followers through his unique sense of humor and creativity. He loved playing video games, watching anime, and exploring the outdoors on his four-wheeler, filling each day with adventure.
