Brandy Campbell is a woman deeply rooted in her faith. As a devoted child of God, she finds strength and purpose in her relationship with Him. Brandy is happily married to Charlie Campbell, and together they are blessed with five wonderful boys and two beautiful grandchildren.
She began her journey in education by serving as a nursery director at her local church, where she also had the joy of being a preschool teacher for two-year-olds. When her youngest child embarked on his Kindergarten journey, Brandy felt a calling to contribute to the public school system. She joined as a bus driver in the transportation department, and her dedication and hard work led her to advance to the role of route coordinator in the operations department. Throughout her tenure, Brandy worked closely with the school board office and various administrators, immersing herself in the intricacies of public school education.
​
However, as she observed a decline in the prioritization of children's best interests, Brandy made the courageous decision to step away from the public school system. Currently, she has transitioned to the private corporate sector, all the while embracing a divine calling to establish a ministry that aligns with God's purpose for her life. Brandy's unwavering faith, experience in education, and dedication to children's well-being drive her to make a positive impact on future generations.
