Dr. Brandt,
Was a great mentor and help me succeed in college as well as advice that she gave me to succeed in life. At one point in time I had to drop college due to lack of funds and she awarded me a scholarship so that I could go back that semester and finish my degree.
She always had time for her students even if she was off work where she would come in and meet she made each person feel important
