Brandon, a proud graduate of Mooresville High School Class of 2000, was an inspiring member of the Indianapolis Children's Choir. His journey included four impactful years as a manager at Dick's Sporting Goods in Plainfield, building on three years of dedicated service at Target.

As a devoted sports fan, Brandon embodied enthusiasm for the Indianapolis Colts, Notre Dame football, and the Indiana Pacers, while also being an avid follower of the Pat McAfee Show.
