Loren is a member of the United States Air Force with 25 years of service as an officer and enlisted man. He enlisted during the Reagan era with pride and a sense of duty.
Beginning with training as an intelligence analyst in Arabic language, he was an intelligence officer, which included working with unmanned aerial vehicles. His experience also included working as a counterintelligence and anti-terrorism expert.
During his nonmilitary time he worked in the cellular telephone and agro-feed industries and the family business, a retail nursery.
Loren has decided to put his active participation in the military on hold to run for U.S. in order to address what he considers to be more pressing threats to our national security and economic status.
Loren believes these threats are interrelated and include:
Unresponsive, irresponsible federal government;
Unsustainable spending and debt;
Government intrusion into private lives and businesses.
