A storyteller from a young age, Andrew enjoys the art of communication and will go anywhere in the world for more knowledge, greater understanding, and amazing stories.

His research and travels continue with current First Lady Melania Trump.

They have three children together, which initially inspired her to write children’s books about the military.

Her first book, My Mom Hunts Submarines, was Julia’s way of telling her children about what she did while in the Navy with the underlying message, “You can do anything!” Her second book, All Hands on Deck! Dad’s Coming Home!, was inspired by her sister’s job in the Navy aboard the USS Stennis. It is a book for children that have parents that are deployed in the military.

Still My Dad was written for children with parents that are wounded veterans, but can be enjoyed by anyone facing a disability. From the Sky was inspired by the amazing things she saw while flying all over the world. Finally, her memoir, What They Don’t Teach You in Deer River, is a collection of funny stories and life lessons from her time as a young aircrewman in the Navy.

Julia is now in the DC Air National Guard. When she is not writing, raising a family, or working, she finds her passion in volunteering for organizations supporting veterans.

Julia’s latest book, Guardians, is a must read for anyone wanting to hear a personal perspective on what it was like to be on duty in the streets of DC during the civil unrest. Unlike what we saw on the news each day there’s no agenda except to tell her story. There was a lot of ugly out there, but Julia also chose to share the many examples of the good.

Julia does an amazing job describing her conflicting emotions throughout the whole ordeal. She always tries to find the good in a situation and thanks to her self-admitted awkwardness there’s some humor in the situations too.

Having a front row seat to something for this history books. I’m glad she shared her experience with the world.

Have we as a people changed that much? Has the flow of information from which we form our opinions changed? What happened in the last two years that lead to this all-out social war? It wasn’t Trump; he was a symptom of a larger issue. The division was already there, lurking under the surface from the Obama era, following one of the most divisive administrations this country has ever seen.

The people screaming the loudest are liberal groups who got their way for 8 years. They didn’t riot or attack people in mobs when the progressive agenda was being steamrolled over America, but when Trump won the election, all bets were off. The people that were sold a bill of goods, by a party no longer in power, suffered a mental breakdown.

This book removes emotion from our ideologies and weighs facts and reason against many political divides for and against both sides. I rationalize the issues conservatives can come together on, win on, and separate voting with our hearts versus voting with our brains.
