Time continually evolves our needs and how we access those needs.  We have a thirst for knowledge and education, yet, it is increasingly less accessible to us.

Especially education that captures what we want out of life.  Giving us the practical experience to pursue what we know we are good at, but it falls outside the parameters of traditional education.

We now can re-envision what education looks like for people and how it can be accessible and practical.

Brandon is thinking differently about giving access to continued education in a way that challenges the status quo.
