Eight years later he left the military, went to college at Texas A&M, and then landed a job in the hotel industry which ultimately brought him to Anchorage over 20 years ago. He began working in the capitol in 2017 as Chief of Staff for Senator Shelley Hughes of Palmer. He later worked for Representatives Kevin McCabe of Big Lake and Laddie Shaw of South Anchorage. He is currently Chief of Staff for Representative Jubilee Underwood of Wasilla.
