Meet Adaptive Athlete: Brandon Miller

Brandon grew up in Combine, Texas and played multiple sports, coached by his father in every sport until middle school. At the age of 20, he enlisted in the Army in 2006 as a Combat Engineer and saw multiple deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan as a Sapper.

 

As a demolition expert, Brandon experienced multiple IED blasts during his 8 years of service, resulting in TBI and Post Traumatic Stress. After being medically retired from the military, he felt like he had lost his identity and started becoming more isolated.

 

Brandon plans to use his time at ATF to improve his physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. He also wants to increase his endurance and build more muscle. Mentally, he wants to win the war in his mind and learn to be at peace in all circumstances, and thrive in his own life as well as a father and husband.
