Jonathan Stickland
State House Representative Texas District 92
Jonathan Stickland is a Conservative Christian Republican running for Texas State House Representative District 92. He’s supporting limited government, transparency, limiting regulation and most importantly wants to represent the voters, not the lobbies.
Jonathan was born in Plano, Texas in 1983. At age 5, his family moved to Hurst, Texas and his parents still live in the same house today.
He attended elementary school at W.A. Porter before moving on to Smithfield Middle School. He went to Richland High School his freshman year and then decided to move to the new Birdville High School when it was completed at the start of 10th grade. Jonathan played on the high school football team and was involved in the theater program where he enjoyed participating in the production “Grease”. After three years in high school he decided to graduate early and took his GED. He went straight into college and spent time at Tarrant County College and Parkland College studying sales and marketing.
Jonathan has held a job since the age of 16. Working and earning what you need and want is a value his father passed on to him from an early age, and is one that Jonathan has always taken seriously. Belief in personal responsibility is his lifestyle. After several years in college he entered a full-time sales position with Truly Nolen Pest Control in Fort Worth. He was then recruited by the small local pest control company Prime Pest Management where he held the position of Residential Account Manager. He earned his Pest Control Technician License with the state of Texas and learned the industry from top to bottom. Seeking more time at home with his two young daughters, Jonathan took the skills he had learned in his life and applied them by starting his own consulting business which he still runs today. Working with local oil and gas companies Jonathan provides crucial services on many different levels including data management, on-location oversight, marketing and sales of new exploration opportunities, and current producing interests. Being in business for himself allows Jonathan the time to do the things he feels truly define him, his family and his faith.
Jonathan has been married to the love of his life Krissy since February, 2006. They met at North Pointe Baptist Church where both of their families attended. A few months after they tied the knot they found out the Lord had blessed them with their first child. Andie Michelle was born late December, 2006 and in May, 2009 her sister Carlie Anne arrived on the scene. Family is the most important aspect of Jonathan’s life, and they spend their free time enjoying activities with each other and friends. The family has adopted three core principles that they strive to incorporate in everything they do – honor, faith and love.
Jonathan surrendered his life to Christ in 1989 at the age of 6. He was baptized at Harwood Terrace Bapist church that same year on Fathers Day. Since then his faith in Jesus Christ has always been his focus and motivation. He served in the youth department and in church camps while in college and the early part of his career. In 2008 the Stickland family joined First Baptist Church of Hurst. Jonathan is a part of the church’s One Life group, men’s softball team, and has participated in Christmas and Easter programs. He is a member of the choir and currently helps teach the 5th and 6th grade boys Sunday School class.
Jonathan’s hobbies include hunting, fishing, football, singing and Texas Rangers Baseball.
