About the author
For the last 6 years, I have worked in nearly every capacity within or around the Trump Campaign. Self-funded and self-motivated since President Trump made the historic announcement that he was going to be the first business experienced candidate for POTUS, on June 16, 2015! I posted my enthusiasm on Facebook before he and Melania's foot hit the floor on the escalator ride and never wavered. I have worked dozens of rallies aiding Secret Service, attended fundraising events in Washington, DC and Mar-a-Lago, assisted with security in Mar-a-Lago, greeting President Trump on the tarmac numerous times, VIP security at numerous rallies, worked 3 days nonstop for the reelection rally June 2019 in Orlando, Florida and Presidential and Vice Presidential motorcade duty at NASA. Also, security with the Trumpettes organization and their annual event. I also built a DeSantis Campaign Trailer attached to my Jeep in 2018! We drove it through 39 Florida counties and 1700 miles combined with working security at two President Trump rallies spanning Panama City and Ft. Myers! I have traveled coast to coast. In addition, over the last several years I have been attached with the White House Press Corp primarily capturing history of President Trump through photographs and videos with the kind support of Salem Media Group. I have taken about 50,000 photos with my first book available at major retailers. I was born in Memphis, Tennessee, but grew up in West Palm Beach, Orlando, and Rockledge, Florida. I graduated from Rockledge High School and within a year joined the United States Air Force. I worked on the high-speed data communication systems in the Titan II nuclear missile program during the Cold War Era. While in the military, I earned a 2-year degree in Computer Electronics and transferred back to Florida after military tour ended to attend the Florida Institute of Technology, graduating with honors with a B.S. in Management Science. I joined Lockheed Martin as a financial analyst and was eventually promoted to management. Earned my MBA from Florida Institute of Technology while working at Lockheed Martin. Subsequent employment includes Pepsi-Cola Company, Walt Disney Imagineering and director of faculty at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, Florida. In 1996, I broke off on my own and aided eBay in the online luxury merchandise market. In 2008, I entered a post graduate program at Columbia Business School, Columbia University, graduating in 2011.
