Brian is third generation military, his father suffered severe health issues after being exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam. He unfortunately lost his dad in 2016, and was left with a deep feeling of emptiness, yet a deeper desire to help others. Brian promised his dad he would look after and advocate for his brothers from Vietnam. Running for Congress is part of fulfilling this promise to help veterans both his Dads generation and all others who served. Although Brian was not able to see his military career through the way he planned, he has always taken very seriously the oath he took to protect the people of our country, and our nation’s Constitution. After several years of watching California decline further, he decided to run for Congress in California. After quickly finding that he wouldn’t be able to make the difference he was hoping for, Brian decided to come home, back to Pasco County, Florida. Back to his roots where he was surrounded by family, friends, and like-minded individuals. Today, Brian is still an entrepreneur and works buying, selling, and renting real estate. However, that calling to protect our nation’s people and the Constitutional Republic has never stopped driving him forward to make a difference. After much consideration, he has made the decision to run for Congress once again, this time he is up against a lifetime legacy politician who has served in his role for many years. Brian doesn’t have the years of Congress under his belt, but he has tremendous heart and passion, no fear of anyone or anything. He is a devout Christian, and wants nothing more than to be of service to our great country.
