CBS Bio
Brendan Synnott is all about playing the game. Whether it is in front of a classroom teaching entrepreneurial success or taking part in outdoor extreme adventures, he knows how to read the odds.
Raised by a single mom in Connecticut, Brendan pulled himself up by the bootstraps to be the co-founder and CEO of Bear Naked, a natural food brand that was recently acquired by a major corporation. Despite his financial success, he is not all about the money.
Success to him, however, is about more than simply creating, building and selling a thriving business; it’s about hard work, passion, fun and surrounding yourself with the best people.
Synnott has always wanted to combine his love of the outdoors with his skills as a leader. In school, he played both football and baseball, and still stays active as much as possible. He loves to compete and says it’s a driving force, even in business. It will especially be a driving force on SURVIVOR.
Brendan is single and currently resides in Vail, Colo. His birth date is Sept. 28.
Brendan is my favorite this season! Him and sierra. I’m glad they are in an alliance together 🙂
I am soooo bummed that Brendan was blindsided. He was my favorite to win all the way. At least he gave it a good try and kept his word to everyone. He really knew how to play the game. My next fav would be Serria. She is such a sweet heart! I hope that she can hang in there with those meanies!! At least Tyson won’t be around to make her cry. Now if the women would just get together and take out the guys, starting with that cartoon character, coach. That man has some serious issues with reality and believing that the world revolves around him. Yuch!
I just watched the Ponderosa footage with Brendan and Tyson. Wow! I am very impressed with Brendan. Brendan is such a nice, easy-going, open-hearted guy. All smiles, no malice, no hard feelings, totally on-board with everything that transpired. Seems like a great person to have as a friend in real life. I don’t understand why everyone wanted to vote him out before Tyson, Coach or JT. Too bad, I wanted him to win and see more of him this Season.
