Brandi Murphy earned her undergraduate degree in Psychobiology and her master’s degree in Secondary Education. She spent nine years teaching middle and high school chemistry and physics. During her teaching years, Brandi was diagnosed with a variety of serious health challenges before she was introduced to Market America’s products and services. The products made such a drastic difference in her life that she decided to start her own UnFranchise® business, and when the nutraMetrix® Program was created a year later, Brandi knew it was the perfect fit for her. Now, as the Director of the nutraMetrix Division, she is committed to helping NCs and Health Professionals become successful UnFranchise Owners while changing the health of our nation, one patient at a time.
