I worked in software.

I was a software engineer, built one of the very first patient portals in the country back in the early 2000s, and then worked as a consultant for a company called Cerner, and then later at the very end, Oracle.

And so software engineer by trade, but also studied finance and realized if I was ever going to make any real money, I either need to own my own software company or go into finance.

And so I became a financial advisor.

So boring guy from the Midwest.

That's the best way of explaining it.

We need more boring guys from the Midwest in government.

Yeah.

And then at what point did you decide to run?

Yeah, so I would sit in my cubicle.

I mean, my work environment was essentially the movie Office Space.

I would sit in my cubicle each day and bang out code or lead a team of developers, and I would listen to talk radio.

I'd pay attention to what's going on in politics.

And a lot of things I would listen to would be things like

you know, speeches by Milton Friedman or Thomas Sowell.

And I would read their books and just, and get really frustrated with politicians.

Because like, I think I just have a very idealistic view of the way things should be and was just so frustrated the way that the swamp operated and the way that even the people that I would help get elected, they would disappoint me.

And so eventually I decided if the, if,

I've got to do it and at least give it a shot.

Yeah.
