Emmy-nominated Brannon Braga most recently served as Executive Producer on Terra Nova. Prior to that he was an executive producer and writer on the award-winning drama series 24. Braga also created FlashForward with David S. Goyer and served as an executive producer on the series. Braga and Goyer previously worked together as writers and executive producers on the sci-fi drama series Threshold.

 Braga was a key creative force in one of the most enduring and well-known science-fiction franchises as a creator, writer and executive producer of more than 150 episodes of the Star Trek series. For over 13 years collectively, he worked on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Enterprise. His film credits include co-writing Mission: Impossible II, Star Trek: Generations and Star Trek: First Contact.

 Braga studied theater arts and film and video at UCSC until 1990. He left, shortly before graduating, after receiving the prestigious Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Internship, which led to his involvement with Star Trek.
