Meet Brandon Max

@itsbrandonmax

Brandon Max (@itsbrandonmax) is a 22-year-old “verified” TikTok influencer from the Burgh. He began using the popular platform in 2020 to cope with the loneliness he was experiencing during COVID-19. While quarantined at home, Brandon turned to the app to build community, inspire others, and connect with his friends through laughter and positivity. He built his following with close to 3 million followers after a friend suggested he post funny videos to uplift himself and his peers. The rest, as they say, is history!

Outside of TikTok and his significant following on Instagram (80,000+), this Pittsburgh-based influencer enjoys running, traveling, and exercising and is quite the foodie. (Did somebody say grilled cheese and powdered donuts?!?!)

“It’s cool to be different” is the motto that’s served him well as he continues to amass his followers, who patiently wait to meet him for photos, autographs, and hugs. “I want to show everyone that we can all come together as one.” he said.

What are you eating?

I’m eating lots of grilled cheese of course!!

What are you listening to?

I listen to a ton of upbeat music. I love Twenty One Pilots, Dua Lipa, and when I’m in the mood some good classic rock.

What do you do to maintain your healthy lifestyle?

My uncle and I are training for my first 10K race this fall.
