While Adam was attending the Native American Preparatory School in San Ysidro, New Mexico, one of his mentors was a Marine who inspired him to enlist in the USMC at 17. During his service in Fallujah, Adam was promoted to Sergeant and awarded a Combat Action Ribbon and Navy Commendation Medal. But his frustration with getting the resources necessary for the Civil Affairs mission led him to question the occupation. After coming home,  he realized that, "the greatest enemies of the Constitution are not to be found in the sands of some far off land, but rather occupying the seats of power, right here at home!" After receiving an honorable discharge in November of 2006, Adam moved to DC to pursue an MB in Political Management at GWU. Since then, he has taken it upon himself to continue to honor his oath to the Constitution and the principles of liberty. He is currently preparing for a run for Congress in New Mexico's 3rd Congressional District.
