Meet the Team

Jeremy Cordon's Bio

I became interested in the precious metals world as a very young adult after watching this incredible video series by Mike Maloney called "The Hidden Secrets of Money".  In this series he draws attention to the fundamental flaws in the U.S monetary system and draws the conclusion that gold is money and always has been.

The precious metals space is fairly small so I didn't envision myself being able to find a job in it. I did meet Larry Hilton at an event at the Capitol in Salt Lake City while interning with the Libertas Institute.  He had a small side business serving the United Precious Metals Association with gold and silver accounts.  About a year later I wrote a blog about his business that ended up being read by over a quarter million people on Zerohedge.com.  The article resulted in an explosion of interest in the United Precious Metals Association (UPMA) and I used that as leverage to successfully get a job with Larry.  He agreed to start me out full-time for $10 an hour which was a steep pay cut.  I don't remember how I sold my wife on this but as a result, I ended up working in the space that I was interested in the most.

As the first full-time employee I was able to help grow UPMA from being an organization with 400 members to one with 25,000.  I also negotiated myself into a management position.  In 2018, I worked on a gold crypto project called Quintric where I served on the board of directors.

The Goldback project to me feels like a possible answer to Mike Maloney's problem that he presents in his series.  Now most of my attention is focused on the Goldback which was set up under a new company: Goldback Inc.

Lawrence Hilton's Bio

Beginning in 2009, Mr. Hilton conceptualized, drafted and then shepherded through the Utah Legislature the Specie Legal Tender Act, which was passed into law in 2011, with important amendments adopted during the 2012 session.  By that statute, Utah became the first state in more than one hundred years to formally recognize gold and silver coinage as legal tender.  Since then he has actively championed monetary reform measures in Idaho, Nevada, Wyoming, Arizona, Oklahoma and Texas—with the latter three states having adopted meaningful specie legal tender legislation.

Mr. Hilton formed Citizens for Sound Money in 2010, and the Utah Monetary Summit in 2011, which in its first year was attended by participants from more than a dozen U.S. states and half a dozen countries.  In 2013, he co-founded the United Precious Metals Association (UPMA) to promote the commercial framework necessary to implement Utah's new monetary system.  He also serves on the Gold Standard Now advisory board of American Principles in Action, a Washington D.C. based public policy think tank, as UPMA General Counsel, and as the Exchequer of the Royal Court of Breifne.

Mr. Hilton holds both Juris Doctorate and Masters of Business Administration degrees from Brigham Young University.  Admitted to both the Utah and California bar associations, he has practiced in the areas of insurance coverage and defense, commercial litigation, business formation, bankruptcy and Constitutional law for more than 30 years.  He currently holds insurance licenses in all 50 states and is a tribunalized cover holder with Lloyd's of London.

Larry also wrote this legal argument for the Goldback as a state legal tender.

Tim DuMoulin's Bio

Mr. Du Moulin has been involved in the acquisition of precious metals for his personal account for many years.  This has been fueled by concerns over the U.S. monetary system and its' inherent excesses.

Mr. Du Moulin received his MBA (emphasis in Finance), from Brigham Young University (1985) and his BA from the University of California, San Diego (1983).  He also earned the esteemed Certified Management Accountant designation from the Institute of Management Accountants in the 1990's and served as President of the San Jose chapter of said institute in the late 1990's.  Mr. Du Moulin brings a rich and diversified work history across various industries and has served in senior financial management positions at Unisys Corp, L-3 Communications, Lockheed Martin and JDS Uniphase.  Over the last several years Mr. Du Moulin has tailored his large corporation finance background to serve smaller companies, serving as CFO of Attraction Studios, Quintric Holdings Inc., and now as a member of the Board and acting CFO of Goldback Inc.

Joseph Oehlschlager has a long history of working within team environments and loves helping to build the trusted comradery that comes with it. Joseph played many team sports in his youth, both through High School and College.

Joseph loves math, data, and analytics. Being born and raised on a small farm in southwestern Missouri, Joseph adheres to the state’s nickname “The Show-Me State” with a slight twist. That being “Show me the numbers.” Joseph is at his core a simple fellow that tries to keep forefront in his thoughts what one of his old football coaches used to preach constantly as the acronym KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). The most important things in Joseph's life are God, Family, and Country. For Joseph, it doesn’t get much simpler and better than that.
