JJ lives on the outer banks, the poor side of the island, making him a pogue. He has blonde hair, is sarcastic, flirtatious, funny, and loves to surf. he is very caring and protective over his friends and people he cares about. JJ has a quick temper and is very impulsive, perhaps due to his abusive relationship with his only parent figure, his father. He isn’t well liked on the island do to him being a pogue. he has three close friends who he always hangs out with (John B, Kiara, Pope).
