As the one and only Digitization Assistant at Backlog, Brady Yanko turns photos into .jpegs, ideas into metadata, and jokes into laughter.

Brady is a rising senior at the University of Missouri - St. Louis, double majoring in Political Science and History. For the Undergraduate Research Conference, he presented on Xi Jinping and the Red Princes, sons of the powerful communist elite in China who founded the country.

Brady wears many hats. When he’s not working with Backlog, he’s either slinging pizzas or coaching soccer at Sandhurst Soccer Club.
