Brandon began web development when he was 14 years old at the Pleasanton Unified School District. He not only gained experience in web development, but Information Systems as well.

While he was at the University, Brandon worked as a computer sales associate at the UCSB Bookstore, an IT administrator at the Givertz Graduate School of Education, and as a web developer at Impact Corporate Promotions a small company based in Santa Barbara, CA.
