|A Georgia native, Parra was raised in Paulding and Douglas county and currently attends the University of West Georgia.
Having worked on conservative efforts, including Senate, congressional and presidential campaigns, Parra has been a warrior for upholding America FIRST values.

Parra’s dedication to defending American ideals is unwavering. The American dream is under attack, and his vitality, youth, and trust in God are the driving forces critical to securing the change of direction needed in Georgia.
In 2020, Parra enlisted in the U.S. Army National Guard, where he continues to serve his state and country.
Parra believes Georgia needs leaders who are held accountable, who keep their promises, and who will do what they say they will do.- America First
