In my own words

Brandon

My career goal is to obtain a marketing related position in the skateboarding industry.

I have a strong passion for skateboarding and have always looked for ways to immerse myself in environments that mirror a creative, competitive industry. To reach my career goal, I have actively taken steps to familiarize myself with the action sports industry. I have gained mixed background of marketing experience working with brands like Vans, Nothing Usual, Herschel Supply Co, Boardriders (Quicksilver, DC, Element, Billabong, Roxy) and Weedmaps.
