Frank’s journey began in the humble surroundings of Maui, where he took his first entrepreneurial steps by selling spam musubis to fund his passion for fishing. But after high school, life seemed to push him into a conventional path—work or college.
He chose work, diving into the excavation industry and aiming for the top: a blade operator, a coveted role in construction. But everything changed when he moved to Dallas. Thrust into a booming environment far from his comfort zone, Frank saw the explosive growth of the DFW area and knew he had to be part of it. It was in this whirlwind of opportunity that he found his true calling: real estate.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
