Brent Mulrooney has worked in national security since 2014 and serves in the Air Force Reserve as a Cyber Warfare Operator. Before that, he served in the Army National Guard as an Arabic Linguist. Brent has spent his whole life working to defend this country, and as a service member and security clearance holder, he takes his oaths very seriously.

Brent is running for State Senate in District 31 because he believes elected officials must truly be there to serve the people, not for personal gain or status. He believes Maryland needs leaders who are open, honest, and hold the highest levels of integrity. Brent knows it is impossible to know everything, and he has spent his career discerning fact from fiction and weighing information by its source in support of national security. He is also a Mensa member, which he sees as a testament to his critical thinking skills. He plans to bring those same skills to the State Senate.
