Brandon Schroder, Believe in Safety
Brandon Schroeder has been an electrician for over 20 years. On August 24, 2011, Brandon survived an arc flash explosion that, without a doubt, should have killed him. Today, Brandon is a professional speaker who connects with audiences across the country and across industries to educate and motivate others to prioritize safety in their daily lives. Brandon had a choice to make that day. He made the wrong one. It’s his mission to ensure others don’t do the same.
