Former Editor of Cartersville Patch. She is a University of Georgia graduate and former crime-beat reporter with The Daily Tribune News in Cartersville.

Beliefs At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. This disclosure is not a license for you to inject your beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them. In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that your beliefs are on the record will cause you to be ever mindful to write, report and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you ever see evidence that we failed in this mission, please let us know. Politics Brande is a conservative on fiscal issues but libertarian on personal issues and most often votes a Republican ticket. Religion Brande is a Christian, but doesn't regularly attend organized church services. She was raised in the Baptist faith and belongs to a Baptist church in Cartersville.

Local Hot-Button Issues Brande thinks one of the most divisive issues for certain groups is the 411 Connector, but neither supports or opposes GDOT's plans to build it through Dobbins Mountain.
