Bio
elizabeth mcgarry
I had the privilege to study alongside Brandon at the Art Institute of Seattle, in the Apparel Design department in 2000. I was always impressed with Brandon's level of creativity, vision, and dedication. He was strong in his technical ability, as well as had an unwavering creative vision that transcended passing trends and fashion. His work was equal parts artistic expression and technical skill, that he was able to bring to life with an unmatched motivation to see his projects thru to perfection. Brandon had the opportunity to further develop his craft thru his studies and work experiences in London, which have led him to a successful venture of his own, Embrusa.

Brandon has been both my student and my advisee. I have found him to be diligent, focused, and intelligent in his pursuit of his passion - designing women's sportswear. He has a clear sense of who he is as a designer. He has a very good set of pattern design skills and is a good sketcher. He has learned much about pursuing a goal in a determined manner, and has made a great deal of progress in a short period of time in getting ready to launch into the industry. He is highly motivated and I recommend him highly.
