Brandon grew up on Long Island, NY where he was raised on welfare in a middle class neighborhood by a single mother. Who insist that he see America as a place of opportunity and possibility. After losing both parents at the age of 18 & 19 he was forced to drop out of NYU and began a career in marketing, shortly thereafter he coFounded Code and Theory in 2001 which has become one of the largest creative agencies. It was this juxtaposition of my upbringing which included personal loss and professional development that deeply informed his work. As a contemporary artist who uses photography and sculpture to examine life, and the notion of time, cultural coexistence, the human condition and the ever changing urban landscape. A category creator and industry leader for over twenty years, Brandon\'s entrepreneurial journey began in 2001 when he founded Code and Theory, an independent creative agency that has grown globally to employ more than 500 employees across 3 continents. Code and Theory has been recognized by Fast Company as one of the Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Design; the WWD 10 of Tomorrow; the Ad Age Agency A list, and others. Brandon has been a trusted creative collaborator with some of the most influential figures of the modern era, including Anna Wintour, Arianna Huffington, Tina Brown, Lenny Kravitz, Tomas Maier, and Harvey Spevak.
