He attended Southern Methodist University, where he played linebacker on the football team. He received his B.A. from SMU in 2012. From there, he spent 3 years working in financial planning post graduation. He then transitioned to working for his father's Agriculture Technology firm, Ahern Agribusiness. While working for AA, Brendan lived and worked throughout Mexico, executing his business in Spanish. In 2018, Brendan received his M.B.A. from The Rady School of Management at UC San Diego. While at Rady, he cultivated his vision for what would become FooodDude. At the end of 2018, Brendan founded AMV, Inc which has evolved into FooodDude. From that point, he has worked tirelessly to get the company to where it is today. Brendan believes in uplifting people, putting smiles on peoples faces. So he was determined to give people what they want: hot, fresh, restaurant-quality food, at a reasonable price, served fast.
