Trouble shooting resolved the issue. The below steps led me to the source of my problem.
1. Checked battery at 13.07 volts
2. Shook/Jiggled the ignition to see if there was slack while turning it
3. Moved steering wheel around while attempting to start
4. Placed in Neutral and Park trying to start in each
5. Checked fuel (just because I didn't trust my gauge)
6. Checked every single fuse in my cabin
7. Set alarm, set off alarm, then disarmed with key
8. Checked starter and engine management relays in the boot... this was my problem. A bad relay shut me down and wouldn't let it crank over or start.

Replaced the relay and it fired right up.
