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?
I am the only candidate for Texas U.S. House District 21 and one of the very few candidates anywhere in this country who stood in uniform when America was attacked on 9/11. I was on Active Duty as a U.S. Navy Intelligence Specialist when the towers fell. When my service ended, I didn’t walk away from the fight I went back to the war zone in Iraq as an intelligence contractor. I ran toward danger, not away from it, because when this country is under threat, Americans step up. That is who I am, that is how I serve, and that is how I’ll fight for you in Congress.As a Veteran, I’ve learned what service, sacrifice, and dedication truly mean, and I bring that same commitment to public leadership. As a CEO, I understand how to manage resources wisely, solve complex problems, and make decisions that deliver results, not just promises. As a family man, I’m grounded in the values of integrity, compassion, and long-term thinking, because every decision affects not just today’s challenges but the world our children will inherit.My background has given me a balanced perspective, the strategic mindset to lead, the practical experience to manage, and the personal motivation to build a stronger future for all.
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?
Bureaucratic waste, the exploding national debt, and the threat of Sharia law are among the greatest dangers to our future. Washington’s failure to live within its means is saddling the next generation with debt they had no voice in creating. I’m running for Congress because of my four young children and my responsibility to protect the country they will inherit. My priorities are clear: cut spending, reduce deficits, and begin paying down the national debt; eliminate fraud, waste, and failed green energy schemes; and re-prioritize federal dollars toward long-term water infrastructure for Texas and the Hill Country. I will stand firmly for an America First agenda to defend our financial security and national sovereignty.
