Some of her earliest childhood memories involve teaching the alphabet to her stuffed animals and perfecting her classroom management skills while playing school with her sister.

Brandi's wide array of teaching experiences have shaped her into a dynamic educator who understands the importance of balancing academics, spiritual growth, and the emotional, social, and physical needs for each student. Brandi believes fostering a classroom environment filled with communication, trust, and mutual respect among students and teachers is vital for student success. She is excited to share her enthusiasm for learning with the students at CCA.
