Expand all | Collapse all

I'm the only son of German immigrants who came to the United States in the aftermath of WWII. I was raised with a strong sense of duty, patriotism, and honor. After high school I enlisted in the US Air Force and was the honor graduate of my intelligence specialist course. I served in a variety of assignments during my 11-year career while also completing college, earning four degrees - two Associate degrees, a Bachelor of Science in Business Management, and a Master of Arts in International Relations. After my honorable discharge, I immediately went to work for the federal government as a civilian intelligence officer.

When 9/11 occurred, I was with the Central Intelligence Agency serving as a Paramilitary Operations Officer. From then until my retirement in 2013, I deployed 12 times to Afghanistan, three to Iraq, once to Pakistan, and numerous other locations throughout the globe. I'm an America First GOP candidate who’s not beholden to special interests or pressure groups; an unabashed patriot who has been tested on the field of battle and the bureaucracy of Washington DC. I desire nothing more than to serve my fellow South Dakotans in holding the line and pushing back against the onslaught against our Republic by those who wish to forever change the nation into something unrecognizable.

  • Property tax relief for South Dakota homeowners is a must. Sales tax on groceries needs to be eliminated.
  • Our local timber industry needs to be protected from DC-based bureaucrats who are trying to eliminate any timber harvesting.
  • State budgetary discipline is a must. Our spending needs to be reigned in. Tough times require tough choices.
