Occupation
Paralegal
I am qualified for this position through a combination of formal education, real-world experience, disciplined training, and lived understanding of the people this role is meant to serve. I have taken the long road—learning not only how systems work when they succeed, but how they fail, and how to fix them.
a) Training and Education: My training is both academic and practical.
b) Characteristics and Leadership Qualities: Character matters. I am disciplined, accountable, and direct. Character matters.
c) Judgment and Decision-Making: Good leadership requires judgment. I weigh long-term consequences over short-term applause.
d) Conclusion: This position requires competence, integrity, and perspective. My education provides the framework.
1) Economic Affordability and Workforce Readiness: Families are being squeezed by rising housing costs, inflation, and a labor market that is changing faster than workers can adapt. 2) Restoring Public Trust in Institutions and Fair Administration. The second pressing issue is the erosion of public trust in government institutions—particularly in justice, regulatory enforcement, and administrative decision-making. -a) I will advocate for administrative reforms that emphasize consistency and due process. Rules should be applied evenly, appeals should be accessible, and penalties should be proportional. b) I will support structured second-chance pathways that are earned—not automatic. Relief mechanisms such as record sealing, rights restored

Mortgage Banker
I was raised by my grandparents on their farm, grounded in faith, hard work, and responsibility from an early age. After attending LSU and working a year for minimum wage, I moved to Houston, broke into the oil and gas industry, and later built a successful real estate and mortgage brokerage with my wife. For more than two decades, we’ve helped Houston families navigate challenges caused by red tape and outdated policies. In Washington, I’ll fix those barriers because I’ve lived them, and I’ll fight for the same families we’ve served for years. As a father of two young children, I understand how today’s policies affect parents and their futures, and I want to give them back control. I am an America first, Texas first candidate.
My first priority is affordability. Families need relief from rising costs, and that starts with cutting the barriers that make it harder to start businesses, buy homes, and own a piece of the American dream. We must continue rolling back the policies driving up costs and limiting opportunity. My second priority is immigration. We must secure the border, enforce the law, and continue large scale removal of those here illegally while putting the safety and wellbeing of American citizens first. Texans bear the brunt of illegal crossings from South America, and I will work with President Trump to stop it.

President of West Houston Airport
I bring a proven track record of leadership, business experience, & conservative values to Congress. I am a successful businesswoman & aviation industry leader with over 5,000 hours of flight experience. As President of West Houston Airport, I’ve created jobs & navigated federal regulations. I’ve served on aviation advisory boards, been appointed by the Trump Administration & Governor Abbott to federal & state advisory committees, & worked with policymakers to improve safety & efficiency. I hold a Bachelor’s degree, an EMBA from Texas A&M, & a Doctorate in Aviation & Space Science. I’m a wife & mother rooted in Texas values of faith, family, & hard work, & I will bring that same commitment to serving the people of the 38th District.
1) Securing our border & combating crime: Chaos at our border threatens public safety, fuels cartel violence, & harms Texans. In Congress, I will work with President Trump to enforce immigration laws, equip law enforcement, & stop drug cartels & traffickers from putting Texans at risk. I was appointed by the Trump Administration to help keep families safe, & I will help finish the job by securing the border & supporting law enforcement.
2) Unleashing our economy & cutting costs: Texans face high taxes, inflation, & red tape. As a former Abbott appointee to Texas DOGE, I know how to cut waste & make the government serve the people.

Occupation
Attorney and Public Safety Expert
For 40 years I have resided in communities now served by the 38th US Congressional District. I have also committed my adult life and career to serving Texans. In the early 1980s, I patrolled the areas of Washington Avenue, River Oaks, and Memorial. Later, I served years overseeing criminal investigations in the Houston Police Department. I have also served as the Manager of Texas TEA’s Safe and Supportive Schools Program supporting to help make safe all local education agencies in Texas, including Cypress, Klein, Spring Branch, Katy, Tomball and Houston ISDs. On the education side, I have four graduate degrees, including a J.D., and master’s degrees in leadership, public service and administration, and business and economics.
#1 is the economy. I would support our GOP’s energy creation plan and dergulation initiatives. I would work to require educational institutions receiving federal funds to create trade majors for growing job markets such as energy, medical, and AI infrastructure development. I would also support more alternative mortgage strategies and pressure the Federal Reserve to further lower interest rates.
#2 is Safety, Law and Order. I would support efforts to secure the border while creating merit-based immigration policies. I also would work to increase support and funding for law enforcement agencies and monitor implementation. Texas cities and communities should be safe spaces for all families-not sanctuaries for lawlessness and predation.

Occupation
Small Business Owner
I am a retired U.S. Army officer with service as an Infantry Officer and Paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division, where I learned decisive leadership, accountability, and mission focus. I later served as an Army Foreign Area Officer assigned to U.S. Embassies in Africa, gaining firsthand experience in geopolitics, national security, and countering foreign influence. As a small business owner, I have created jobs, met payroll, and navigated federal regulations, giving me real-world insight into how government policy impacts families and employers. I am a principled, constitutional conservative committed to limited government, individual liberty, strong national defense, and America First values.
The first pressing issue is affordability for everyday Americans. I will support policies that lower energy costs through domestic production, reduce inflation by opposing reckless federal spending, and roll back regulations that increase prices on food, housing, and transportation. Lowering the cost of living starts with a disciplined federal government and a strong private sector.
The second issue is the national debt. I will push for mandatory audits of federal agencies, stronger inspector general authority, and the elimination of duplicative and ineffective programs. Reducing fraud, waste, and abuse, while opposing omnibus spending bill, is essential to restoring fiscal responsibility and protecting future generations.

I am the most qualified to serve as U.S. Congressman for Texas Congressional District 38 because I’ve led, managed, and served—not just talked. I spent seven years on active duty as an Officer in the U. S. Marine Corps, learning discipline, accountability, and peace through strength. In the private sector, I have managed a multi-billion-dollar global business for a Fortune 80 technology company, balancing real budgets and delivering results. I am the only candidate who has been publicly elected! I serve on the Tomball Independent School District Board of Trustees and have been President (3x), lowering taxes while maintaining excellence. I’ve delivered conservative results in the USMC uniform, in business, and here in TX-38—results matter!
The two most pressing issues facing Texas Congressional District 38 are border management and the cost of living. On border security, I support strengthening enforcement of existing laws, ensuring the Border Patrol has the necessary resources, improving border infrastructure, and restoring policies that promote order, accountability, and humane treatment while reducing incentives for illegal immigration. To address cost-of-living, I will focus on fiscal responsibility, reducing wasteful spending, encouraging a balanced budget, and supporting a reliable, affordable energy mix that includes domestic oil, gas, and nuclear power, alongside regulatory reform and pro-growth tax policies so families can better afford food, fuel, and housing.

Occupation
Attorney
My experience as both a small business owner and a trial attorney make me uniquely qualified to represent the district in Congress. I have distinct skills related to entrepreneurship, job creation, contract negotiations, budget management, elimination of waste and dealing with government regulation that shape my understanding and implementation of effective economic policies.
Additionally, my years of being a trial attorney have taught me: (1) the skills of effective advocacy, negotiation and building an argument; (2) problem solving; and, (3) when necessary, the art of questioning a witness. I have had to read and interpret the law, create solutions when none exists and draft legal papers and agreements.
1. We must repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act which in its current format is a fiscal disaster and the greatest threat to our economic prosperity. We need to deregulate the health insurance industry, permit cross state competition of insurance providers and give the consumers more choice for the scope of coverage they want.
2. I also intend to introduce a constitutional amendment to impose term limits for members of Congress. Without term limits long serving members of Congress have too much power and lack accountability to the voters. Members are elected to serve the people, not vice versa.

Self Employed Firearms Dealer and Pawnshop Owner
6th-generation Texan, Christian husband, father of three, and grandfather of five, I’ve lived in TX-38 all 60 years. As owner of Tomball Pawn & Jewelry and a licensed firearms dealer, I’ve built businesses from the ground up—starting with mowing lawns at 12—while battling taxes, regulations, and inflation that hurt families and jobs.
Independent, and beholden to no donors or lobbyists, I bring proven business experience, not political baggage. My qualifications: real-world problem-solving, payroll-meeting grit, and unwavering Texas values—faith, family, freedom.
TX-38 needs a citizen-legislator who puts voters first, fights for smaller government, secure borders, and America First policies. I’m ready to deliver.
Inflation/Debt: Inflation is a hidden tax caused by reckless borrowing. I’ll file the Homestead Protection Amendment on day one—a constitutional ban on all ad valorem property taxes on primary residences, ending the practice of taxing families out of their homes to pay Washington’s debt interest. Force 15% across-the-board federal spending cuts, starting with all foreign aid.
Borders/America First: Finish the wall using seized cartel assets, mandate E-Verify nationwide, defund sanctuary cities, and stop every dime of foreign giveaways. Money saved reduces debt and funds tax relief for Texans—not foreigners.
Texas families first. Secure borders. Balanced budget. Real results.
