After his career in the tech industry, Downing founded a nation-wide commercial insurance company and a nation-wide real estate firm that creates, sells, and manages real estate investment secu- rities. Downing’s strong sense of public service led him to enlist after 9/11 in the U.S. Air Force/Air National Guard, serving eight years in a Combat Search and Rescue squadron and serving two tours of duty in Afghanistan.
