Politics:
During the 1990s I also became quite involved in Republican Party Politics and served in several leadership positions including Chairman of the Gwinnett County GOP 1996-1999, 6th Congressional District GOP Chairman 1999-2001, 7th District GOP Chairman 2005-2009, Georgia State GOP Vice Chairman 2009-2013.
In 2001 I was decisively beaten by 3 votes for my reelection allowing me to chair Congressman John Linder's (the FairTax author) campaign (Bob Barr ran against him) in 2002 and Gwinnett County Chairman Charles Bannister from 2004 to Present.
In 2005 I was elected Chairman of the 7th District Republican Party and left that post in 2009 to be elected 2nd Vice Chairman of the State of Georgia Republican Party (Present). Ran for State Chairman of the Georgia Republican Party in 2013 and was narrowly defeated. Now weighing my next political foray.
In 2012 I had the honor to be a Senior Advisor to Newt Gingrich for his presidential campaign.

Ran a couple retail mortgage brokerages and then went to work at Barnett Bank as the Southeastern Regional VP for Barnett Mortgage Company1993-1998->Nationsbank merger 1998->BankofAmerica merger 1999.
