Before moving to New Orleans I was the Communications Guru for the Utah State Senate. While I primarily worked for the Republican Majority, my focus was to get out the message of the entire body. Before joining the Senate its members a new one quite regularly on KSL Newsradio where I hosted the Nightside Project. They figured they might as well get someone who'll be an honest broker when it comes to advice and I hope I did just that. This was quite an honor for a Utah boy whose Utah History grades weren't that great!
