Brandi Rand Is High-Key a Thought Leader in the Social Media Space

In #BlackTea episode 8, exploring the intersection of digital and diversity

Imagine the energy to start your ad career as an entrepreneur. Brandi Rand’s career has touched nearly every type of agency since then. In this episode, we spill the tea about how much of a powerup it can be for Black talent to experience working at multicultural agencies, and how the diversity push at predominately white agencies must go beyond DEI roles. Brandi’s mission in this industry is getting more of the Black diaspora into its storytelling. Meanwhile, she invests in and looks out for the culture, slathers her babies with sunscreen, and amplifies the voices of up-and-coming Black women in the industry. You know I can get down with that. Dig into this conversation about a trail-blazing woman and the game-changing work she’s made.

Black Tea is a video series that exists to make the independent voices of our fellow Black adwomen louder in the industry.
