Courtland Bragg is an award-winning storyteller and public speaker whose purpose is to be an inspiration to the world. After graduating with a degree in Communications from West Chester University, Bragg had aspirations of becoming the "next big thing" in broadcasting, but humility quickly set in. Being denied by 80+ jobs and internships, including NFL Films, Courtland’s life plan and trajectory seemed all but clouded. Without a job and his student loan payments due, Courtland became a substitute teacher at his high school alma mater to help manage financial responsibilities. Outside of the classroom, he began directing, writing, and producing stories on his own. The result was the digital anthology series entitled, “Stories to Bragg About,” or STBA.

STBA garnered the attention of thousands of online viewers but most importantly, NFL Films, who soon hired Bragg. Aside from producing enterprise stories for NFL fans across the world, Courtland dedicates his life to inspiring the next generation seeking guidance and direction in finding their dreams. As an inspirational speaker, Courtland takes listeners through the journey from being a substitute teacher to becoming a 3x-Emmy Award-winning Producer. His message shares what it takes to break into the field of broadcasting, overcoming depression, and finding one’s purpose. Courtland’s ultimate goal and passion is to share his testimony in hopes that it will inspire others and assure them that their greatest successes will come when they trust their journey to become someone worth “bragging about."
