I’m Jackson Holt—a writer, investigator, and storyteller shaped by a lifelong curiosity about the truths that define our world. Raised in a family where stories and secrets were part of everyday life, I learned to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and pay attention to the spaces in between. A Jesuit education sharpened that instinct, training me to think critically, embrace complexity, and recognize patterns that others overlook.
Much of my career has been spent examining how events unfold, how decisions are made, and how unseen forces shape outcomes. From political shifts to cultural movements, I’ve worked to break down the mechanics of influence, power, and the quiet negotiations that often go unnoticed.
Now based in Mallorca, I continue to explore these themes through journalism, essays, and fiction. This site is where my work lives. It’s not about easy answers or neatly packaged takes but about looking deeper, connecting ideas, and sometimes using fiction to explore what facts alone cannot.
Whether through reporting or storytelling, my goal remains the same: to provoke thought, evoke feeling, and uncover the unseen.
