Matthew
Okerson
A deeply rooted conservative, U.S. Army Veteran, and committed public servant with decades of experience in national defense and cybersecurity, and a strong record of grassroots engagement.
Raised in a working-class family, Matthew wasn’t born into privilege — he was built by faith, grit, and hard work. From a young age, he learned that nothing is given, everything is earned. His family faced tough times, but through the grace of God and the strength of their local church, they always had what they needed. Those early struggles didn’t hold him back — they forged his values: self-reliance, service over self, and an unshakable commitment to putting people first.
