Expand all | Collapse all

I am a combat veteran, business executive, Christian, family man, and Community Servant.

I pride myself on authenticity, transparency, and serving others.

My campaign is about serving the people of TC CD 10; I believe strongly in service above self-truth over politics-conviction over convenience.

I have been tested during kinetic combat operations, improved organizations that I have worked in, and I have served Veterans, their families, and young people.

I am most concerned about making our system work so that future generations realize the American Dream.

I will work for the citizens of TX CD 10 first. Their concerns are my concerns, as Thomas Jefferson wrote, "The people... are the surest reliance for the preservation of our liberty."
  • National Security-from Federal Spending, to Immigration, to Foreign Policy, our strength depends on deterrence, domestic stability, and the economic means to maintain our position.
  • Responsible Growth-TX CD 10 has 3 distinct areas that encompass rural communities, agriculture, research, and technology. Each of these communities must be served.
  • Veteran Affairs-Veterans and their families should be cared for. Bureaucratic process should not deny critical care.
Responsible Growth, National Debt, Immigration, Veteran re-integration efforts, and Veterans health care
National Defense PAC, Fred Brown (Brazos County Commissioner and former Texas Legislator), Allen Wortham (Marine Combat Veteran and former Harris County GOP Chair), Dr. Matt Polling (Board Certified Physician and U.S. Air Force Veteran), Commodore Gary Leigh (U.S. Navy Retired and Combat Veteran), Nathan Wilkinson (Army Combat Veteran and Former Mayor City of Biggs), David Seals (Combat Veteran and Veteran Commendation Recipient), Colonel JP Hogan (U.S. Army Retired)
