Taylor was a Marine Infantry Officer and combat veteran of the Afghanistan war. During his combat deployment to Afghanistan, he commanded a multi-national force through combat operations in Northern Helmand Province. While in the Marines he learned discipline, tenacity, resilience, and above all: leadership.
After leaving the Marines in 2015, he worked for State Senator Charles Perry during the 84th legislative session gaining first-hand experience of the legislative process. Through this experience, Gillig was able to work on SB 185, Perry's initial draft of the anti-sanctuary cities legislation he passed the following session.
After the session, Gillig started his MBA at Southern Methodist University, concentrating in Strategy and Finance. During his time at SMU he co-founded a chapter of the Adam Smith Society; an organization dedicated to promoting the moral, social, and economic benefits of capitalism.- Secure the border
