Brandon Wolf

Keynote Speaker: Pulse Nightclub Survivor, Activist, Changemaker & Thought Leader

Brandon Wolf Biography

Brandon Wolf is a nationally recognized LGBTQ civil rights advocate, leader in the movement to end gun violence in America, and survivor of the 2016 shooting at Pulse Nightclub. After narrowly escaping that night, during what was the deadliest mass shooting in US history at the time, Wolf channeled his life into fighting for a safer world for future generations and honoring victims of injustice with action.

He is a frequent face on MSNBC and CNN, and an opinion contributor in Oprah Daily, Newsweek, USA Today, and others. Wolf has graced the cover of Dazed Magazine and LGBTQ publications nationwide, having been named one of the Logo TV’s 30 LGBTQ Changemakers, Huffington Post’s 30 LGBTQ Influencers under 30 and Out Magazine’s 100 Most Influential LGBTQ People.

Wolf’s work has made him a respected thought leader on the political intersections of LGBTQ civil rights, racial justice, and gun violence. He was a national surrogate for Senator Elizabeth Warren’s Presidential Campaign and an advisory committee member for President Biden’s General Election bid. In 2019, he became the first survivor of the Pulse tragedy to testify before Congress and was returned in 2022 to testify on the rise of anti-LGBTQ hate violence before the House Oversight Committee. Wolf is a co-founder of The Dru Project, a nonprofit organization that empowers safe spaces in schools for LGBTQ youth, and recently served as the Press Secretary for Equality Florida, the state’s LGBTQ civil rights organization. He is currently National Press Secretary for the Human Rights Campaign (HRC).

His debut memoir, “A Place for Us”, was released to great acclaim and became an instant best seller in July 2023.

Brandon Wolf Reviews

  • Brandon was a joy to host, and brought just what we needed to our event.
    University of Michigan School of Public Health - Feb 14 2024

  • Brandon was really phenomenal and the audience response was overwhelmingly positive. The only caveat from our Board members is that he might have spent a little more time on the issue of addressing gun violence itself during his speech, but he did a great job of responding to more specific questions about how the different generations might work together to deal with gun violence during the subsequent panel discussion. Brandon was also very gracious and accommodating at our VIP reception prior to the event as well as audience members who approached him after the event. We would highly recommend him!
    Grandparents for Gun Safety - Oct 23 2023

  • Brandon was a phenomenal keynote and such a pleasure to meet.
    Polen Capital - Jun 23 2023

  • Brandon was amazing and we received a lot of positive messages about his story!!
    Discover Financial Services - Jun 06 2023

  • The event was amazing and was very much amplified by Brandon’s remarks. We ran a little long on the portion just before him but the entire room stayed to hear him speak and I really don’t think there was a dry eye in the crowd. His message helped underscore our Together we Thrive theme, and his take on it being a call-to-action, and that you can’t thrive alone, really resonated with our employees.
    American Medical Association - Mar 20 2023
