Myers, was kicked out of Savannah High School in 1996.\u00a0 He went on to have a career in optical retail management and later financial management, while raising his son, Torrin.\u00a0\u00a0Brian was also enrolled in Missouri Western University at this time, and later graduated with his B.S. in Marketing Management from WGU.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tired of the daily grind,\u00a0Brian\u00a0and his wife Amy began opening and operating small businesses in Saint Joseph in 2012.\u00a0 They currently own a vintage clothing store named The Lucky Tiger, a combination bookstore\/bar called The Tiger\u2019s Den, and the newly opened event venue, Metropolitan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brian\u00a0has been involved with the Saint Joseph community on multiple levels.\u00a0 He and Amy co-founded First Saturdays Downtown (now Downtown First), and have been co-recipients of the Mayor\u2019s Awards for the Arts.\u00a0\u00a0Brian\u00a0has served on numerous boards and commissions, including the MWSU Arts Foundation, the Saint Joseph Public Library Foundation Trust Board, has served as past president of Downtown First, and the Downtown Economic Stimulus Board.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently,\u00a0Brian\u00a0is serving his first term as a City Councilman at-large for the city of Saint Joseph.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight:
