Wednesday's Child: Brandon

Wednesday's Child

PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Brandon is a fun-loving and outgoing 11-year-old who has his sights set on not one, but three different career paths.

"I was going to do three jobs at the same time," he said. "I'm going to be a scientist at night. I was going to start YouTube, then in the middle night, football player."


Brandon's ambitions are only matched by his larger-than-life personality.

"He has a very large personality," said his social worker, Valerie Bevilacqua. "He's very charismatic. He's very outgoing and very animated with the way he talks and expresses himself."

Brandon likes to play football and video games and go fishing. He does really well in school, especially in his favorite subjects: science and math.

"I like creating stuff and I just can't wait to do algebra and math," he added.

When he's not mixing and calculating, he's helping those around him, learning along the way, and growing into his own.
