Prior to serving in the California State Assembly, Hadley was the Republican party chairman for the 66th Assembly District and an entrepreneur and investment banker.
Hadley was born and raised in Fullerton, California and graduated from Servite High School in Anaheim. He received his bachelor's degrees in both Economics and History from Dartmouth College (1986), and he completed his Master of Science in Economic History at the London School of Economics (1994).
From 1986 to 1999, Hadley was an employee of BT Alex Brown and its predecessors and affiliates, including BT Securities Corporation and Bankers Trust Company. During his employment he worked in New York and Atlanta, and moved with the firm to Los Angeles in 1996. When Hadley resigned in June 1999 upon the acquisition of BT Alex Brown by Deutsche Bank, he was a managing director in the media & communications investment banking group. In June 1999, Hadley founded Hadley Partners, Incorporated.
