Brandi has always felt her true calling in life was to make a positive difference in the lives of children. She felt if she was able to reach just one child, she would have fulfilled that purpose, but she is immensely grateful for a God who reaches bigger and further than she can imagine. Brandi spent many years working in daycare and nanny care while being thoroughly invested in serving the children in her church. It was to her surprise that God called her into youth ministry in 2014, but she obediently followed that calling. As always God knew what he was doing and how to equip his people for his plans and purposes and now she can’t imagine doing anything else with her life. She is dedicated to connecting with and serving young people to help guide them into a lasting relationship with Jesus. It is important to her that her students feel loved, heard, seen, and valued, especially in a world where young people are often underestimated.

God has also blessed her with her loving husband Micheal, who graciously serves young people along side her. They have three amazing children. Their greatest joy in life is spending time together. That time can be spent laughing, hiking, bowling, going to the beach, enjoying amusement parks, or visiting new places; anything so long as it’s together.
