Who I am

The biggest problems we face in our state and our nation come from within. The people of our great state are growing tired of the status quo. Often, when it comes time to vote, they are stuck with the same old thing.

Not anymore. I am breaking that mold and offering a way forward that fights for we the people.

Experience

I have lived in 6 different states, spent time in Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Guatemala, Italy, Britain, France, and Belize. I have seen real poverty, failed governments, and people struggling to be free from tyranny. I served as a cop in the Air Force, I managed two different departments at a well known sporting goods store, student taught at the Montana Youth Challenge Academy, and I am now a tenured Social Studies teacher at St. Regis Middle School/High School. I have been teaching in St. Regis for 7 years now and I love it. It is the best job I have ever had.

Interest and Hobbies

Now that I have two boys (ages: 3 and 1) I am pretty occupied with teaching them how to be men, leading my family and spending time with my beautiful wife.

Aside from the family, I love to ponder the deeper questions of life, to hunt, fish, backpack, fix things, restore things, read, write, shoot, reload, run, workout, build, garden, learn, help others, teach, coach, debate, play guitar, mill lumber, cook on cast iron, and attend our homegrown bible study.

I was an Honor Graduate of Basic Training and a Distinguished Graduate from my Security Forces Technical School while in the military. I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Montana Western and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Modern History and Secondary Education along with a Master of Science in Curriculum and Instruction from Western Governor’s University. While teaching, I was selected as one of the top 4 finalists in the state running for Montana's teacher of the year in 2021.

I have no formal training, experience, or reeducation in mainstream politics, propaganda, or communist infiltration techniques.

I have never run for any political office until now. I am not a politician. I am a servant of God and the people, driven by the call to protect us and our posterity from tyranny and the monster that is big government.
