A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
Not to brag here, but I've really gone everywhere and done everything. I started a lawn care business at 14. I joined the Army at 19. I have framed houses, made sandwiches, sold running shoes, and even tried my hand as a professional fisherman.
I'm a certified Search and Rescue instructor, a survival instructor, a former federal police officer, and I'm not afraid to jump in a boxing ring with a pro to up my glove game.
In the Army, I have served fourteen years honorably in the Infantry - ground combat arms every single day of service. The miles are long, the rucks are heavy, and I always seem to have to walk uphill when it's raining for some reason, but I've made the best friends I could ever ask for, and I wouldn't change it for anything.
At this point, there aren't many people in the entire US Army who know more about reconnaissance operations than I do, so I'm writing the book - seriously - writing the book on light reconnaissance operations and tactics against peer adversaries in electromagnetically contested post nuclear engagements. ​
I did throw in two years as a Sniper to shake things up.
I've been called to serve you many times over the years. From the Freddie Gray protests to COVID response to snow storms to January 6th, I'm proud of my service for Maryland.
I've also worked for the Intelligence Community for nearly a decade. I've been in almost every major agency, and in almost every major intelligence discipline. If you were having dinner in Frederick, I was probably in Washington dealing with problems on the other side of the globe.
And beyond all that? I'm a damn good father, a solid teammate, and - I like to think - a good person.
​​I demand fairness in government under God. I demand equality against billionaires. I have zero tolerance for tyrants. I was born in the land of the free and the home of the brave, and that is exactly what I'll pass onto my son.
