After Brayden graduated from high school, he went straight into university in pursuit of a degree in Paramedicine. After becoming a paramedic and working at that for almost a year Brayden realized that his passion remained in the digital world, so he began focusing on his online career, which led him to AMG.
Brayden began working with AMG almost a year ago as part of the sales team, managing inboxes, and cultivating brand relationships. Recently, Brayden has been promoted to Senior Partnerships Manager. Brayden’s day to day operations include overseeing the sales and partnerships team, scouting new talent to service at AMG, and helping creators scale their brand.
Part of Brayden’s duties is to develop concrete processes for talent management and add new talent while serving every person to the highest standard possible. He is constantly honing AMG’s strategies to expand our footing in mobile gaming and be a full-service agency that can appeal to everyone.

We asked Brayden if he could create a holiday, what would it be? Brayden was quick to touch on the issues that our world is facing right now, and wished for another day to come together and hope for peace in our world. To be considerate of people, the situations around us, and make an effort to get involved in any way we can to continue to support those in need.
