I’m crazy.

I paint my nails every single day. A different color. A different pattern. Different. My friends go back and forth about whether I am “crazy talented” or just…crazy. It comes from my passion for ideas; for building them, cultivating them, and watching them come to life. So, in my defense, I’ll say that I can’t imagine passing up a chance to design, even if the canvas is as small as my pinky finger.

I’m dedicated.

My loyalty knows no bounds. I am completely, and utterly obsessed with the Detroit Lions. Yes, the only team to ever have a 0-16 season. Ever. I’ve known the incredible feeling of hope and the crushing pain of heartbreak. But, no matter what, I’m right there. I have always, and will always trust the idea that if you believe in something, it will reward you someday. Dedication can be a hard thing to find in a person, but I can promise I have it.

I’m a designer.

I’m at Miami Ad School to polish, cultivate and adapt my skills. I’m a sponge. I listen. I learn. I implement. I’m on a never-ending mission to learn so that I can continue to be on the cutting-edge. It’s just who I am.

I’m Katie Brandt, and I’m a crazy-dedicated designer.
