Brandy channels over 15 years of creative direction, leadership, and communications experience into all that she does. Brandy attended The University of Southwest Louisiana where she initially majored in Elementary Education, later changing her major to Business Administration. After being involved in a life-altering automobile accident and undergoing extensive surgery and hospitalization, Brandy discovered a love for the medical field. She changed the entire direction of her educational focus which resulted in a degree in the medical field. She spent a tenure that spanned over 10 years in various positions in the corporate medical sector prior to launching two successful companies of her own.
Brandy is the Owner and Founder of iBrandYOU360, a Personal Brand Strategy Firm for Entrepreneurs, and Brandy Landry Interiors, an Interior Design Firm that specializes in Residential New Construction and Workspace Development.

Not only is Brandy known for her ability to design interiors, she is also widely known for her ability to develop and design PEOPLE! Yes! PEOPLE. Brandy is a Personal Branding and Communication Strategist for entrepreneurs, millennial entrepreneurs in particular. Brandy loves working with millennial entrepreneurs due to her remembering what it was like not having access to a “Brandy Landry” when she was a millennial treading entrepreneurial water for the first time. iBrandYOU 360 has enjoyed steady growth since its inception, and Brandy credits much of that success to her amazing innate ability to “connect” with people.
