Kwame Jackson
Kwame Jackson of New York, New York was one of the two final candidates on Donald Trump's American television reality series The Apprentice. His second place finish was due to his failure to competently deal with Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, a fellow contestant selected by Jackson to work under him during the final episode. His prize was a job as a judge for the Miss Universe pageant, a position he was quickly fired from after inadvertently meeting some contestants in a hotel lobby, a violation of pageant rules.
Although born in Washington, D.C., Jackson was raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, which he considers his hometown. Jackson has a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a Master of Business Administration degree from Harvard University. Jackson's business experience includes work with internet start-ups, sales and marketing at Procter & Gamble and investment management at Goldman Sachs.
