Early life and education[edit]

Over the course of his career, Brandt has held leadership roles at two large Christian camps and served as executive pastor of a church.

Blind Spots: What You Don't Know Can Hurt You[edit]
In 2019, Brandt published Blind Spots: What You Don't Know Can Hurt You, co-authored with Ashley Kutach. The book aims to help in "identifying and dealing with the behaviors, attitudes, and habits you’re not even aware of that keep you from being and doing your best". Ryan M. Akins, Regional President at Dale Carnegie, has called it "one of the best leadership books [he has] ever read".[5]
