Political Party: Republican Candidate Background:
Born in Muskogee, Neil is the son of a High School coach and principal. A standout athlete, Neil went to college on a baseball scholarship, eventually returning to Muskogee to coach and teach history and math. Neil knows firsthand the challenges in the classroom, and he vows to protect girls’ sports and stand for parental rights. Neil fought for the largest increase to education funding in state history and also supported one of the largest teacher pay raises — all while cutting taxes by co-authoring the bill to eliminate the state grocery tax.
Neil left teaching to start his insurance agency from scratch. He grew the agency substantially, serving clients in multiple states and achieving his carrier’s prestigious Toppers Club award for being Top 5 in sales — three years in a row. Neil recently sold his agency to serve the needs of HD13 full time but still employs multiple people in our communities through his other business ventures. His businesses have always treated his clients like family and put their needs first.
Together, Neil and his wife Nicole have six children. Neil’s oldest son, a valedictorian and military veteran, served our country in the Marine Corps and his younger son still serves in the Army National Guard. A lifelong Republican, Neil is an NRA member, pro-life, prolower taxes and stands tall for the values that make America the greatest nation on earth.
