about Me
Hi I’m Brandon, The Lifestyle Engineer.
My mission is to share the lessons I have learned and to help you capture the life you deserve and are capable of.
By setting a direction, breaking our limiting beliefs, developing skills, building habits, and managing our constraints, we can design and live our own dream life.
Who I am
My name is Brandon, and I believe we can all live our own dream life.
I am a full-time Mechanical Engineer leading a team of incredible individuals.
Inside and outside of work, I like to help others live their dream lives through self-development (personal and professional), goal-setting, constraint management, and creating the habits to achieve what they desire.

Who I Help
While I believe everyone can improve their life, I focus on helping those who are ready and willing to do the hard work to achieve their dream life.
I work with and write for professionals and individuals that struggle with their limiting beliefs and are ready to stop wishing and start prioritizing the necessary habits to achieve their dream life.

My Story:
Since my first childhood memories, I have always had a passion for learning and sharing. Whether I was deconstructing a playset at the age of 6 or showing how it went back together, I always wanted to learn and share more.
As I grew up, my love for knowledge only grew and has since opened up countless unique experiences and opportunities, including the following:
- PADI Rescue Diver
- Crossfit Athlete and Coach
- Mechanical Engineer
- Presenter and Public Speaker
- Woodworker and Knife Maker
- Blogger and Youtuber
- Fairly decent home cook
I have immersed myself in continuous study and practice in my quest for learning, from six years of post-secondary education, hundreds of books, dozens of professional development courses, seminars, webinars, and thousands of hours of videos and podcasts.
As much as I love to learn, I equally love sharing and teaching others in hopes of helping them improve their everyday life.
Professionally, I am the Engineering Lead at KG Industries, where we design and manufacture heavy-duty specialty axles for the transportation industry.
As Engineering Lead, I focus on many sections of our business, including team growth, product innovation, sales engineering, design for manufacturing, and product life-cycle. This broad responsibility range has given me tremendous insight into the practical side of leadership and development.
I am a graduate of the University of Victoria with a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering and a graduate of Camosun College (Advanced Diploma in Mechanical Engineering) and Okanagan College (Diploma of Engineering).
Outside of work, I enjoy sharing insights on this blog, woodworking, and staying active with fly fishing, scuba diving, snowboarding, fitness, cooking, and learning just about anything.
In today’s age, a lack of knowledge is not the missing link to success. It is instead filtering through all of the noise and finding one voice you can trust and follow. I hope to be that voice for some of you and be able to improve your lives as I have my own.
