Brandon Leake is the winner of Season 15 of NBC’s America’s Got Talent. He is also the Founder and CEO of Called To Move – CTM, is an artistic visionary whose roots lie in the ghettos of the south side of Stockton, California. Being born and raised to a single parent household with his mother, Carla Leake-Gibson, Brandon was accustomed to the complexities of playing this game of life with the decks stacked against you. However, with a strong home life and some divine intervention Brandon made it out of his neighborhood ghetto into a college classroom. This journey came with its many trials from the loss of integral members of his family and abusive home life, but these trails mixed with this spiritual collegiate journey would soon blossom into a beautiful poetic journey.
In 2012 Brandon started Called To Move – CTM at Simpson University with a small group of artists just trying to share their gifts and encourage others to do so, which has lead its way into inspiring others through poetry all across the country. Brandon Leake has traveled across the country and abroad performing his pieces, leading spoken word poetry workshops, and keynote speaking.
