FORMER Donald Trump associate Brad Parscale garnered media attention for serving on both of the former’s presidential campaigns.
Since severing ties with Trump after the 2020 Presidential Election, people are curious to know more about Parscale and how he became affiliated with the former.
Born on January 3, 1976, Brad Parscale’s career as a political advisor earned him several headlines.
Hailing from Topeka, Kansas, Brad went on to graduate college from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas.
Following his college years, he made the move to California to work for his father Dwight at an animation software company named Electric Image.
Prior to his career in government, his family had a political background due to Dwight’s tenure as an assistant attorney general who unsuccessfully ran for Congress in 1974.

After Electric Image filed for bankruptcy in August 2002, Brad returned to San Antonio, Texas and became a website developer.
This led to him meeting fellow web designer Jill Giles and forming their own company in July 2011, named Giles-Parscale.
In April 2012, Giles-Parscale was hired to build a website for Trump International Realty.
This resulted in several more collaborations between Giles-Parscale and the Trump family.
The firm was also employed by Trump for his presidential crusade during the 2016 US Election, in which Brad Parscale became the campaign’s digital director.
For his 2020 bid for re-election, Trump rehired Brad as his campaign manager.
However, on July 15, 2020, the 45th President announced that he replaced Parscale’s role as the campaign’s manager with Bill Stepien.
While speaking with Fox News’ Martha MacCallum, the web designing political advisor gave details on what happened.
He told Martha: “I didn’t like lying to him — I like telling the truth.
“Sometimes that comes with a lot of painful days, knowing that I might let him down or make him upset.”
Parscale revealed: “But a lot of the D-level people that hung around him told him what he wanted to hear.
“They were ‘yes’ men. I wasn’t going to be ‘yes’ man, but a ‘get it done’ man.”
Between his political endeavors and career in web development, the public called Brad’s net worth into question a number of times.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, his fortune is an estimated amount of $12million.

His riches are attributed to both of his tenures as an Internet consultant and political advisor.
