Personal Journey
Brandon's Story
Hello all, My name is Brandon! I love creating music, playing Magic the Gathering and fighting games, exploring the great outdoors, traveling to new places, going on adventures, and spending time with my wonderful family and friends.
While vacationing in Santa Cruz, CA with my family — an excited young man ran up behind me on the boardwalk. I glanced down at a pair of hopeful eyes beaming up at me. He had TAR Syndrome too. It was the first time we both met someone else with TARS. I gave him and his family some encouraging words and advice, then we went our separate ways. For the rest of the day I had a warm feeling inside my heart and knew my purpose would be rooted in helping others like me.
We established TARS STARS to assist individuals with TARS and other rare genetic limb differences achieve their goals and dreams. Each one of us walks a unique and challenging path, but with the right mindset and tools, we can accomplish anything we set our minds to.
