I was born and raised in Cedar Rapids where I graduated from George Washington High School, then attended Kirkwood Community College and later received a bachelor’s degree from Life Christian University. I am a real estate broker / businessman and cofounder of Marriage Minded Ministries. I have been owner/operator of dental studios, cafes and sporting goods stores. In more recent years I have served as a campaign advisor and manager for Arizona Congressional candidates focusing on the constitution and important issues for the people. Since 1981 I have shared my life with my wife Julie Wolfe, a surgical nurse. We live south of Elkader Iowa and have four children and 15 grandchildren. I believes that: • A strong Christian voice is important to Iowans. • Families, rural generational farms and small businesses are the backbone of Iowa. • Protecting the liberties and the rights of all Iowans must be foremost to leadership. • Opening opportunity doors for all Iowans to prosper plus attracting new investments are paramount to Iowa’s future.

  • I believe that strong Christian values are important to Iowans. Families are first with a strong foundation to right for life which begins at conception.
  • I believe in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in it's entirety which protects all Americans citizens civil liberties provided in the constitution against Tierany and Civil Rights that protect against discrimination. Those right belong to American Citizens not illegal aliens!
  • I believe there must be accountability at all levels of government! All illegal mandates must be reversed, and our God given rights and the Constitution is the law of the land. The People come first, and government must be reduced!

We are a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy. The people come first, and government must be accountable to the people.

My Dad, He was my hero of wisdom, honor and loyalty.

The only agenda an elected official has is the represent the people that elected them and not the lobbyists.

I believe in full disclosure and transparency. An expertise of Negotiation Skills to get the work done. Understanding, It's about what the people want. They are my agenda.

Always making the people first and making the right decision.

Owner / Operator of Dental Laboratories. 1983-2003. 30 years

The Bible. It's God's word.

Santa Claus. To give everyone what they desire most and spread love and kindness. To see children smile and listen to them laugh.

Homesick by Mercy Me. We just lost my wife's dad over Christmas and we are planning his celebration of life.

Remembering names. I talk to a lot of people.

Supporting all forms of energy that work together for our common good. We cannot rely on technology that won't be ready for generations yet.
Supporting and protecting our great farmers and their industry. This is the back bone of our state.

No! Our forefathers wanted a government of the people by the people and for the people who were common people. In the beginning of this great country no lawyers or attorneys were allowed to hold public office.

I believe it's very important to have good relationships with likeminded legislators. It promotes unity and should make bills pass quicker.

Either Bunny Knock Knock joke. Goes on and on....
Why couldn't the mellon marry without their parents permission? They are cantaloupes.
