Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a native of Wyoming, a graduate of the University of Wyoming Engineering College, United States Naval War College, retired United States Marine Corps Colonel, aviator, and combat veteran. I've been married for nearly 30 years to my wife, a nurse and United States Navy veteran, and raised three daughters.

I am a principled conservative Republican or one who has an unwavering belief in self governance, individual sovereignty, American Exceptionalism, and Absolute Truth as defined by God.

For too long now, Wyoming has been sold out to the highest bidders by politicians who lack the morale courage to defend out constitutional liberties and protect our state from corporate take over. Taxpayer abuse is rampant, spending is out of control, our agriculture is being swallowed up by globalist interests, our public education is well below were is should be, few trust our elections, and our energy policy is upside down.

I aim to change that paradigm by putting Wyoming first, people first, and restoring principled conservative leadership, accountability, and discipline to Cheyenne. But I can't do it alone. I need the help of every Warrior Patriot to Return Wyoming to the People; to return taxes to the taxpayers, elections to the voters, education to the parents, agriculture to the growers, and energy to Wyoming!

We must remember who we are. We are are Americans, we are Wyoming and together, we can make Wyoming #1!

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Cut taxes, deregulate, and cut government spending. Conduct routine statewide budgetary audits to ensure that ever tax dollar is spent according to statute.Hand count all cast paper ballots to regain public trust in our elections and raise our public education standards to be top in the nation.Protect our agriculture as critical infrastructure and maximize our mineral extraction and energy production to be more resilient and self-reliant.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Protecting the people's constitutional liberties from both Federal and state government overreach. America and Wyoming are strongest when the people are freest.
