Brandon Grande

Chief of Business Development

Brandon was born in Santa Monica, California and raised in the San Fernando Valley. Lured to the Bay Area by his brother, Marcello, he studied Hospitality Management & Business at San Francisco State University.

Marcello had recently started Westernized and he wanted Brandon’s help to run the business side of things while he focused on the creative. What was supposed to be a part-time job to put Brandon through school became his focus. He fell in love with the process of turning ideas into tangible things.

Brandon is a natural leader, a driven self-starter, and a glutton for punishment. He is passionate about creating not only finest work, but the finest experience in the business. He is also very active in the community and currently serves as the Representative to the Producer’s Guild of America Northwest.

When he’s not wrangling six projects or hopping on a last minute flight, Brandon enjoys cooking, motorcycling and customizing automobiles. And as many at First Person, he’s a foodie. If you ever need a good recommendation, he’s the guy to ask.
