My path wasn't a straight line. I started working minimum wage jobs at 15 and enlisted in the National Guard at 17. I know what it’s like to build a life from the ground up. I went back to college as an adult to launch the career I have today. Now, whether I'm protecting NASA data or ensuring compliance for major tech platforms, I spend my days identifying risks and fixing them. Those are the exact skills we need in Austin.

I’m a proud League City dad. My wife, Anna, and I are raising our family right here in District 24. You’ll usually find me in the stands cheering on my oldest son at football games, shopping at HEB, or caring for our youngest, who is on the autism spectrum. I know that "pro-family" has to be more than a slogan. It means fighting for schools that support every child, making sure families can afford to put food on the table, and keeping the government out of our personal lives.

Why I’m in This Fight

Politicians shouldn't be allowed to pick their voters.

I decided to run when I saw the new district lines. The courts might say it's legal, but we all know it’s just overt gerrymandering. In a free country, voters are supposed to choose their leaders. It isn't supposed to work the other way around. They are carving up our neighborhoods to keep themselves in power, and I’m tired of it.

I believe in the Constitution, not loopholes.

Lately, Austin has become obsessed with "anti-freedom" tactics. They are pandering to their mega-donors with "Culture War" distractions like banning books, pushing religious mandates in classrooms, and creating bounty-hunter enforcement schemes. But let's be clear: Matters of family and faith belong to the family and the faithful, not the state.

This toxicity isn't just a distraction; it is an invasion. I’m running to stop the overreach and protect our privacy. The government has no business in your doctor’s office, your library, or your bedroom.
