Early years and personal life

Braun was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He was drawn to music at an early age, picking up the drums at 12 years old. While in school at Lakeville North High School, Braun was the captain of the drumline. He also joined a band where he performed in acts sharing the stage with bands such as Cartel, Gym Class Heroes and Quietdrive; as well as playing on the Vans Warped Tour. At age 18, Braun started recording and mixing local bands.

After high school, Braun attended Middle Tennessee State University where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Audio Production. His studio was involved in the AES recording competition in the "Traditional Studio" category. He also represented MTSU in Shure's 8th annual Fantastic Scholastic recording competition in which he won for the university over $11,000 in microphones.

After graduation, he co-founded Forty-One Fifteen, a multi room studio facility located in East Nashville, Tennessee. After a few years of tracking he transitioned into mixing full time. Braun currently works out of his private mix room, "Anthem House".
