ABOUT ME

Hey! My name is Wyatt Brannon, and I'm a student leader and researcher currently serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Spain. So far in life I've lived in Seattle WA, The Woodlands TX, and Logan UT — three very different places with three different cultures and groups of people. In addition, upon my return in 2022, I will be attending Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania! During my travels in Spain, I will regularly update a blog detailing what I'm up to across the pond, and if you urgently need to contact me, then you may do so through this website.

​

My interests include (but are not limited to) systems biology, philosophy, and political science, generally with a computational bent. I've had the good fortune of taking my evolutionary biology research to the International Science Fair three times in a row. I've chosen to attend a liberal arts college as I believe that I will receive a better technical education as part of a more well-rounded education as opposed to the other way around.

While I cannot be involved in any non-church organizations while I am on mission, I am the founder of two extant organizations currently operating in Utah.

Research Initiative for Science and Engineering (RISE): a high school club dedicated to helping underserved students engage in academic research and compete in science fairs and similar competitions

Moderation and Civility: a small nonpartisan political organization helping people engage and debate from opposing sides of the political spectrum in an attempt to promote cross-ideological understanding

When I return home, I hope to continue helping connect others and uplift those around me in Pennsylvania. See you then!
