Brandon is from a 6th generation equestrian family, growing up in a hunter/jumper barn he learned to ride at a young age. Aspiring to follow in his fathers footsteps he learned from the best, Terry Russell, a former Olympian rider, pushed him to succeed. Brandon rode his first Grand Prix at the age of 15 years old. This led him soon after to begin competing in national and international show jumping events. Brandon has rode and worked with some of the top professionals in the equine industry to get where he is today. At 21 he rode with Anne Kersenski (former Olympian) learning the ropes and riding at an Olympic Level. While his father, a former Olympian himself, kept a watchful eye on his successes. Brandon has shown at the Washington International, Devon, Palm Beach and the Ocala Circuits and also had success as a rider in the show ring in Germany.

Brandon is currently the Professional Trainer at Dry Creek Equestrian Center teaching the needs of both the horse and rider in the disciplines of hunter and jumper. With his competitive spirit and his willingness to pass on his valuable information to others, this is the perfect place for Brandon to showcase his talents.
