Yeah, that's right, Charlie. So I'm standing here, again, at the northern border, about 20 minutes from where I was born and raised. It's where I'm choosing to raise my four children with my beautiful wife, Ali. And, you know, this is an area of the country where our jobs have been shipped overseas regularly. Our farms have emptied. It's extremely rural.

And what comes behind that, behind losing economic opportunity, drugs and despair. And so we have seen drugs come across our northern border. And we have a major opioid crisis here in New York 21. You know, this is a beautiful part of the country. We love swimming in the lakes. We love skiing the mountains. We love hiking the Adirondack Mountains. But.

Slowly, that way of life that we have known for a long time has been slipping away over these last four years. And so it is so critically important that we deliver on President Trump's promise to put American businesses, American farmers first to create jobs in economically depressed areas like New York 21. to continue to support our military.

You know, we're home of Fort Drum and the 10th Mountain Division, which is the most deployed division of the Army since 9-11. And so continuing to build on the gains that Congresswoman Stefanik has had for these last 10 years, reverse some of the negative results of the Biden administration and stand with President Trump. And that's what I would do if I'm, you know, honored to be able to serve

my friends, my neighbors, my family here in New York 21, I'm going to go to Washington and fight for them and fight for the president. This district voted overwhelmingly by over 20% for President Trump. And so we need to go and deliver on the mandate, bring our jobs back, fight crime, get rid of drugs, and secure both our northern and southern borders.

Yeah, that's right, Charlie. So my background, as you know, I was born and raised here in upstate New York, about 20 minutes from the Canadian border. It's, again, where I'm choosing to raise my four beautiful children with my wife, Allie. And when I was 15, I started a company making maple syrup, but I learned how on a school field trip when I was 11.

And when I was 15, I started a company making maple syrup, but I learned how on a school field trip when I was 11.

I just thought it was cool that I could tap the trees in my front yard and make it into syrup. And so I was able to turn that passion into a business, grow it from a couple of maple trees to ending up getting on Shark Tank, selling into about 8000 stores across the country. And it was just it was amazing thing.

It's the American dream that I could start with, you know, basically no money, no connections and then be able to grow it into this this national brand. I was blessed to be able to sell that business in 2020. And then in 2021, I started another company, a construction company, a totally different industry.

And in four years, was able to build it to about 100 employees doing work all over the country. And you're right, Charlie. Here in what we call the North Country, it is my home. It's where my parents were born. It's where, again, I grew up. It's where I played hockey. It's where we go to church.

And I grew up with this mentality that the North Country was a place that if you wanted to succeed, you had to leave. You had to go to Florida. You had to go to New York City. You had to move. wherever throughout the country. And that shouldn't be the case.
