Bio
Brendan Wanderer was born in Rocky Mountain House, Alberta in 1977. He believes that small communities and self-reflection can change lives, and the world. When he was young, he nearly stepped into the Grand Canyon because he wanted to see what lay beyond the edge. As an adult, he still finds ways to test his environment and to never cease from exploration. He truly lives up to his name, having lived in Calgary, Vancouver, and Victoria, before his recent move across Canada to pursue a diploma in Screen Arts at Nova Scotia Community College.
He received a Certificate in Children and Youth Ministry from Naramata Centre, BC, and spent over ten years mentoring youth in leadership before making the decision to pursue his first love of writing/directing for film. An aspiring writer/director, 'Wanderer' is also a very capable Script Supervisor with a keen eye for details and an inherent understanding of stories.
He currently resides with his wife and children in Vancouver, BC where they are always busy planning their next big adventure.
