SYNOPSIS

"I've done all these things not only for myself, but for all of you
that have been counted out, been laughed at, been picked last.
Your biggest hurdle isn't your opponent, it's yourself."- Brandon Todd

Brandon Todd is 5’5’’ and he can dunk. He has never believed his height to be a limitation but an opportunity to change how people view small athletes. Brandon transformed his body over the course of a few years, gaining over 80 lbs of muscle, increasing his vertical to over 45 inches. Todd hopes to teach others that through hard work and perseverance physical limitations can be overcome.
