Brandon Manzella

San Diego

Summary

My name is Brandon Manzella, and I recently made the life-changing decision to move from Australia to San Diego to pursue both athletic and academic goals at San Diego City College. This decision represents my commitment to chasing my dreams, no matter the distance.

I pride myself on having a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and a team-oriented mindset. Whether I'm in the classroom or competing on the field, I bring focus, energy, and a genuine passion for growth. I'm someone who leads by example and shows up consistently.


Moving across the world hasn’t been easy, but it’s pushed me to grow in every way. I’m excited about what lies ahead and ready to give everything I’ve got to succeed here in San Diego.
