Brad Zaun

Brad was born and raised in Des Moines. As the son of a hard-working farm implement dealer, he learned the life lessons of honesty, respect and others before self. He attended public and parochial schools where he enjoyed student government and athletics and graduated from Dowling High School. Brad attended college at Grand View and Ellsworth. While in high school and college he worked for his father’s John Deere dealership learning the practical lessons of the business of agriculture.

After college he worked in the hardware trade and soon took the opportunity to go into business for himself. It was there as proprietor of his own hardware store, Zaun’s Trustworthy Hardware, in Urbandale for eighteen years that he learned the hard lessons of business ownership. At the same time Brad started a family, enjoyed watching his children grow, struggled to make ends meet and wrestled with the challenges facing every young husband and father.
