Jaxson Scown
Associate
Jaxson joined the Abound Wealth team in January 2026 after graduating from Brigham Young University–Provo with a degree in finance in December 2025. He developed a passion for personal finance early in life, sparked by watching Graham Stephan on YouTube in high school and reading extensively about money and investing. On his 18th birthday, he opened his Roth IRA, and during college, he continued deepening his knowledge after discovering The Money Guy Show.
Jaxson is driven by a simple goal: to help people use money as a tool to buy back their most valuable asset—time—so they can focus on what matters most and live more fulfilling lives.
Originally from Gilbert, Arizona, Jaxson served a two-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Xalapa, Mexico, after graduating high school. When he returned, he began his studies at BYU, where he met his wife, Lizzy. They are excited to welcome their first child, a baby girl, in May 2026.
