When Brandon was just 3-years-old when he was diagnosed as a Juvenile Type 1 Diabetic. Brandon's journey with Diabetes is a survivor’s story. Growing to become a brittle diabetic, he underwent 9 surgeries, lost a kidney, told that death was imminent, and raised over $250,000 to pay out-of-pocket for a life-saving pancreas-only transplant.
Growing up on an egg ranch in Southern California, he went on to receive degrees in Theology, Education, and History. He went on to do missionary work and teach high school social studies. He earned a law degree, interned at the Department of State, and worked as a law clerk before my body started shutting down.
Brandon is now embarking on a new chapter in his life. Which includes a book about how he overcame the impossible, motivational speaking, blogging, and using his story and experiences as a resource.
