Brandi Neal

Director of Content Creation & Marketing at Radical Candor

A professional writer, editor, storyteller and content strategist with more than 15 years of experience, Brandi Neal is the director of content creation and marketing and podcast producer for Radical Candor. In one of her previous jobs, she worked as a web-development copywriter and a scriptwriter at L.L.Bean where she wrote and starred in product videos, including an instructional skiing video even though she does not know how to ski.

A former daily newspaper reporter, she is also the editor of two anthologies and co-founder of the narrative magazine The Blue Room. In addition, she was a 2016 recipient of an Idyllwild Arts fellowship for nonfiction and has given readings of her work around the world. Brandi has a BA in journalism from the University of Toledo and an MFA in nonfiction from the University of Southern Maine’s Stonecoast MFA program.

Some of the stranger things she has done include walking on fire (twice), hiking to the top of an active volcano in the middle of the night, and participating in an impala dung-spitting contest, which is just as gross as it sounds. In a movie of her life, she wants to be played by Stana Katic.
