Frank has spent most of his career in public affairs roles, advising companies and prominent institutions on public policy issues in Washington, D.C., and state capitols across the country, after heading up public affairs for Churchil Downs, Inc., for several years. He led the privatization-in-place of a Navy weapons and engineering base in Louisville, a project that saved more than a thousand STEM and manufacturing jobs, after beginning his private sector career leading public affairs for the Louisville Chamber of Commerce.

He then served two tours of duty as a U.S. Navy intelligence officer, at sea with a carrier air wing and as the lead intelligence briefer and special assignments leader for a four-star U.S. and NATO regional commander.
