Major: Business Management
He
was born in Wisconsin where he lived until 2000,
then moved out west to Yakima,
Washington and has lived there ever
since. Brandon runs track at PSU which was an
initial reason why he came here, but now the friendships that he has developed
and the fun he has in the city are what keep him here. An influential person in his life is one of
his best friends Trevor. They have run track together since high school and now
are on the team together here. Trevor inspires Brandon during practice and sets an example
in his everyday life. His favorite memory at PSU is everyday in the spring when
it is sunny and everyone is outside playing Frisbee or just laying out.
Brandon
admires that his dad works a lot but always has fun at what he does and is
always telling Brandon
to have fun at whatever he does too. His
favorite quote is: “We get one story, you and I, and one story alone”, from the
Donald Miller book, Blue Like Jazz.
He likes this quote because it is inspiring everyone to do what they really
want to do in life and make it count for something. One of the most important things in life
according to Brandon
is family. Not necessarily even his real family, but the people he considers
family are the most important people in life and should be loved and treated
with respect.
