25 Principles. One Constitution. 250 Years.

Meet the Founder

Why Liberty's Principles Media?

My qualification to found Liberty's Principles Media comes from a life lived at the crossroads of service, law, and moral inquiry. As a Gulf War combat veteran who went on to earn a Juris Doctor and Master's in Intellectual Property Law and practice law for 14 years, I've seen firsthand how civic virtue and constitutional literacy shape—or erode—freedom in real communities.

From learning discipline in the Army during the Gulf War to confronting bureaucracy in the family courts, from rediscovering purpose through my daughter Ande—I've lived under every system I write about.

My story of finding a home on a sailboat after facing homelessness and legal battles is proof that principles outlast hardship and that love persists even when communication fails. When the institutions I depended on fell short, I turned my experience into this mission: to give your family the clear, non-partisan compass I had to find through struggle.

The 28-book Liberty's Principles Pals series—animated by the spirit of my daughter—distills the lessons of the Founders into stories children can feel: courage, fairness, faith, honesty. Zen and the Art of Citizenship extends those lessons into an interactive platform for the whole family. And with the July 4, 2026 launch of the full ecosystem, we're building the tools every American family needs to understand their civic inheritance.

Liberty is a living principle. It must be cultivated in each generation.
