Bran started his working life on the truck at 17, as a co-driver, hauling kitchens through the Netherlands. With a big interest in architecture and the engineering of building´s, he kept his eyes open.
At the age of 19, he started driving solo, first just regional, later on driving from Serbia to Schotland.
Having transported all sorts of goods from kitchens, glasses, engines all the way to explosives, he´s seen a lot of different sights, goods and designs.
The most loved time of driving, would be his time in the United Kingdom, a big love that reflects in his house-decoration and drawing-style.
One of the trickiest times was hauling explosives through Europe, what resulted in a 4 year burn-out. To prevent the dangerous freight getting to him, he started writing: poems, lyrics and some short stories (none of the shorts would get finished at that time).

At the age of 25 he stopped driving, and started looking at completely different sectors.
Around this time, he started drawing, using Adobe Photoshop to create websites and computer-backgrounds.
It was like rediscovering an old friend: He started working with software like Adobe Photoshop and CorelDRAW at the age of 12/13, but because of other idea´s and plans, never extended his knowledge fully. The traveler was more dominant then the creative side.
While being at home for those 5 years, he found a passion for making music: singing, playing didge and smashing percussion. These things became a good tool for letting out stress and relaxing after a day full of puzzeling in webcode and pencil-lines.

He´s always had a big passion for the stage and events. This is resembled in his previous involvement with big scouting-events (National Jamboree 2000, centralist for his security-team, end-coordinator of JOTI 2001) and alternative lifestyle events (Stagemanager at Ragnarock 2005 and Caslefest 2005, backstage-volunteer at Castlefest 2006)
In his days of driving, he´s seen a lot of different logo´s, lettering, building-designs and scenery. This might explain his passion for designing the very same things.

These day´s he´s keeping himself busy with drawing his beloved dragons, designing letters and logo´s and singing.
