Little sister to Sarah Brandt Karner and Adam Brandt I loved being a part of Viking Drama. Mr. Jim Neal played such a significant role in my life and the lives of my siblings. I moved to Northern California and have been teaching for the last 7 years at an amazing elementary school where I also help direct our children’s choir. I went back to college where I obtained my Bachelors in Counseling Psychology and my Masters in Teaching. I started in social work, moved to special education and treatment facilities, but truly love working in the classroom! I am also a worship leader part time and wouldn’t trade it for anything! I have two incredible children (8 & 13), and married my best friend back in 2020.
