Whether it be serving in the military or in his own backyard at church, serving has always been a passion for Josh and his family. Josh is dedicated to serving with consistency and attention to detail in all capacities. He joined the Marine Corps in 1985 and was activated for Desert Storm in 1991 until he was honorably discharged in 1993. His dedication to the local youth has led him to volunteer in many different capacities, including with his children’s PTA boards for over 20 years, coaching youth basketball, baseball, volleyball and football, as well as serving as a Boy Scout Master and Eagle Scout Mentor.
As a lifelong conservative activist, Josh has deep roots in the Harris County Republican Party.
