Neal Jackson was born in Pinehurst, North Carolina, to two school teachers who taught him from an early age the importance of hard work, integrity in everything, and compassion for others.  Neal started his first business at the age of ten, and in a matter of weeks he was mowing thirty lawns in their neighborhood because of hard work, done well, at a VERY reasonable price.

In college, he met his soul mate Tracy Jackson, sitting in alphabet order in a Tuesday evening class. She would eventually become Tracy Jackson-Jackson and the mother of their five children.

 

After college and graduate school, Neal started an insurance and financial planning firm that he operated for twelve years.  God abundantly blessed the firm with awards and hundreds of clients. The secret to the success of the business was the lessons he learned from his parents of hard work, integrity in everything, and compassion for others.   
 

After selling the financial firm, Neal followed his passion of helping people into the pastorate which brought the family back to North Carolina. He has been the pastor at Beulah Baptist Church in Bennett, North Carolina since 2009. Having spent more than a decade giving advice about earthly investments, he is now honored to give advice about eternal investments.
 

In 2022, Neal was elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives, 78th district which includes Randolph and Moore counties. He is privileged to serve on the Rules committee, Banking committee, Finance committee, Education-University’s committee and the State Employees committee.  

 

Neal’s goals in life are not political, but to live a life that pleases God and keeps the principles taught to him by his parents of the importance of hard work, integrity in everything, and compassion for others.  

Neal and Tracy have five children, a great church family, two dogs, thirty black Angus cows, and 90,000 constituents they are able to represent in the State House of North Carolina.
