John Walls and Justin Brady-Joyner on FOX LEGO Masters Set.
Creativity has always been at the center of who John Walls ‘05 is. As a kid, he was hooked from the moment he opened his first LEGO pirate set, sails and cannons included.
That early passion came full circle in summer 2025 when Walls, who goes by brickbuilderjohn on Instagram, took the national stage as a contestant on Fox’s hit competition series LEGO Masters.
Along the way, Walls realized LEGO is more than a toy: “When we’re young, we think LEGO is just this cool toy. But what we’re really doing is learning how to create, solve problems, and tell stories.”
