Mary Padian is a “Storage Wars” star, known as the “Junkster” on the show. She was born on the 24th August 1980, in Dallas, Texas USA, to John and Teresa Padian. From an early age, she became interested in antiques as her father owned a scrap metal company, and she would use recycled metal to make artistic items. As she got older, Mary’s interest became a passion, and she gradually made moves towards a related professional career. Aside from antique items, Mary was also interested in architecture and home designs, and during her senior year of high school, she found a place as an intern at D Home Magazine. After matriculating, she enrolled at the University of Texas, Austin and graduated with a degree in photojournalism in 2003, soon after which she moved to New York City.

Jobless, and in search of new experiences, Mary would visit magazines on a daily basis to hand deliver her resume. She eventually struck a deal with Architectural Digest, and subsequently became an assistant editor, and launched a section called “Mary’s Finds”. She gained a massive following online, and so decided to start her own YouTube channel with the same name. Her next step was leaving Architectural Digest and returning to Texas, where she opened her own store, Mary’s Finds, and after a couple of years, met Moe Pigoff, one of the “Storage Wars” cast members. The two developed a friendship, and Moe wanted to help the young lady further develop her business. As a result, Moe and Mary became partners in the search for new, intriguing and amazing antique items for Mary’s store – he would take her on his trips, and as a result, Mary became a part of the “Storage Wars: Texas” cast. Mary spent the next three years in Texas, visiting storage units in the search for new interesting items for her store. The audience apparently fell in love with Mary and her happy-go-lucky character, and in 2014 she was made one of the cast members of the original show “Storage Wars”, so far appearing in more than 50 episodes of the highly-acclaimed show in her continued search for unique – and potentially profitable items. She is now awaiting the new season, and is ready for new adventures.

Brandi Now Lives in Los Angeles
Once “Storage Wars: Texas” was canceled and Mary moved to the original series, she also made a move from her native Texas to Los Angeles, California.

Although Taken, She Would Always be Daddy’s Girl
From an early age, Mary has been fond of her father, and two maintain a strong relationship. It was John’s company that got her interested in what she is doing today, and it is quite hard to break that bond between them. Now that she lives in Los Angeles, it is a problem for her to see her father every day, but she often buys a plane ticket for her father to visit her in California, while she also takes several days off to visit her home.
She has a Big Family

Fame Didn’t Change Her At All

Many thought that Mary would change once her business started to grow, and her role on “Storage Wars” become more notable, but that didn’t happen. She is the same, believe it or not.
