Brandt was born on October 26, 1999 in Sumner, Iowa and grew up there. Her parents, Kevin and Amy Brandt, and three siblings, Caelynn, Isaiah, and Morgan—all played a key role in her upbringing. Her experience at Sumner-Fredericksburg High School included four outstanding years on the volleyball team, in addition to serving as team captain twice. In addition to competing in track and field, she competes in club volleyball. When she started her senior year, she decided to join the Iowa State University volleyball team and graduated in 2018.
Brandt’s close-knit family can often be seen on her Instagram account, showing the strong bond between them. According to Brandt, her most cherished moments include spending time with her parents and siblings, even revealing that her decision to attend Iowa State University was heavily influenced by her siblings.
After high school, she attended charter school at Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa, choosing kinesiology as her major. Brandt’s journey overlaps with Purdy’s, as both committed to Iowa State in the same year and were freshmen at the same time. How their paths originally crossed remains undisclosed, but it is speculated that it was during their time on campus.
When she entered college, Brandt extended her volleying journey to the field as a setter for the Iowa State Cyclones. She took her ambitions a step further and auditioned for both the USA Collegiate National Team and the USA Volleyball Women’s National Team in her first year. Her stay with the Cyclones was extended for three seasons, including an overseas trip to South America for international competition.
Although Brandt and Purdy debuted on social media together in the summer of 2022, they didn’t confirm their relationship on Instagram until November of that year. In one post, Brandt shared a series of photos of Purdy spending time with his family on the farm.
