— Kaye Tuckerman
Professional, efficient and trustworthy. Brandon’s attention to detail, experience and expertise make him the ultimate find in NYC. He’s always punctual, fair and has the right tools on hand to get the job done. From creating a custom pantry tp putting up shelves, we can’t recommend him highly enough.
— Angela Gilltrap
I have hired Brandon to build three separate projects now. Each time, Brandon quickly made the custom pieces I needed (loft beds and a custom drafting table) with impeccable, very sturdy results and a high degree of craftsmanship and finish. His rates are reasonable, his communication is excellent, and he does a quick turnaround on your schedule.
— Anthony Kieren, Visual Artist
Brandon is, quite simply put, amazing! I sleep in a lofted bed that is 8 feet off the ground and my cat could not get up there without assistance. My apt is so tiny that I needed an efficient but beautiful way for my cat to get up to bed. Brandon not only assisted in designing a cat ladder, but he ensured that it matched my apartment’s decor and style. His work is flawless and far better than anything I could have attempted on my own. Additionally Brandon pays attention to detail. After teaching my cat to climb the ladder (food bribery involved) he modified the design to make it easier. I couldn’t be happier and couldn’t recommend Brandon more strongly!”

About Brandon

Why “The Handy Actor”?

Well, I’m an actor and a handyman.

My parents have always been handy. I first used a power drill at age four.

I started acting when I was 12 years old at the community theater in Austin, Tx. The same year, I started building the sets, hanging the lights, and doing just about anything to help make the shows happen. Over many years and many sets, I picked up an incredible amount of handy skills.

After getting my BFA in Acting, I moved to NYC. I started working as a freelance handyman in 2013 as a way of paying the bills in between acting jobs. It’s a rewarding, tactile job that I enjoy in between the often ephemeral and intangible experience of being an actor.

When I’m not acting or handyman-ing, you can often find me bartending, playing board games, or spending time with friends.
