Hi, I’m Jaxson Richmond.
Hey! I'm Jaxson Richmond, an out-of-state college student at the University of Alabama, originally from Charleston, West Virginia. Having recently made the transition to college life, I know firsthand how overwhelming it can be to pack up your life and move into a dorm room, especially when you're far from home.
From maximizing limited storage space to finding affordable, practical essentials, I've experienced the challenges that come with making a dorm feel like home. That's why I created this page: to help fellow college students find useful, reliable products that make everyday campus life easier.
My goal is simple: take the guesswork out of college shopping by sharing practical finds from a student's perspective. Whether you're preparing for move-in day or upgrading your current setup, I'm here to help you make the most of your space and your college experience!
