Brandy joined ORM in 2019 as youth and volunteers programs manager. She previously worked with ISU's Program for Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE).
My role:
I help individuals and departments navigate ISU’s policies and procedures for youth programs and volunteers. That can include training youth program leaders, running background checks on volunteers, or helping student leaders understand best practices when working with youth. The best compliment I can receive at work is “that was helpful”- I hope that our campus community looks to us as a resource and support!
What I like best about working for ORM and ISU:
I love that I get to work with so many different departments and professionals across campus! As a teen, I was involved in a youth program held on college campuses across Iowa (first as a participant and then as a volunteer), and that got me interested in higher education as a career. Now that involvement feels like it has come full circle with my current job.
