Growing up, I was a bit of a nerd. I studied mathematics
and computer science in college. Then I started my own business that merged with Yahoo!. I started other small businesses in insurance and real
estate, but then my life changed forever…
Like millions of Americans, September 11th was a turning point in my
life.
I immediately enlisted in the United States Air Force/ANG. I served two tours of duty in Afghanistan as part of a
Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) squadron.
After eight years of service, I honorably discharged from the Air Force and returned to my wife and
kids back home in Montana.
We are partners in a local distillery in Bozeman and when the COVID pandemic hit, our community went
above and beyond to help our Patriots and neighbors. There were shortages of toilet paper, sanitizing wipes, and hand sanitizer in every single
store.
We quickly turned our whiskey distillery into a hand sanitizer production facility to provide free hand sanitizer to
families, first responders, and hospitals.
In the Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) Community, we live by this motto:
I’m running for Congress for GOD, so we
will never forget that we are one nation UNDER God.
I’m running for Congress for our FAMILIES, so our kids have every open opportunity to succeed.
I’m running for
Congress for our COUNTRY, so every future generation can still call the United States of America
their home and the best country that has ever graced God’s creation..
Patriot, this race won’t come cheap. Democrats
are chomping at the bit to flip Montana BLUE so they can turn our state into the next California! I can’t let that happen, but I’m hoping
strong faithed Patriots like you will help win this fight.
