ABOUT
ME

Hi, I’m Brandi Watts — the proud owner of ISR Willis (previously ISR Spring). I was born and raised in Spring, Texas, and in 2017, I earned my bachelor’s degree in biology and forensic science from the University of Texas at Austin. Hook ’em Horns!

 

My husband and I have been married since 2016 and together we have two beautiful daughters who have both gone through the ISR program. My oldest daughter was truly a little fish — she could perform the full swim-float-swim sequence by the time she was just a year and a half old and could swim the length of our pool unassisted. I even had the incredible opportunity to teach my youngest daughter myself during my ISR training, helping her master swim-float-swim at just twelve months old.

​

Our journey into ISR started back in 2020, when we decided to put a pool in our backyard. My oldest daughter was one at the time. The night we filled it up, I started having vivid nightmares about her falling in and drowning — waking up drenched in sweat. After several nights, I told my husband we had to do something. I began researching and found ISR. I signed her up immediately, and day by day, I became more and more fascinated watching a one-year-old learn to roll back and float. I was completely hooked. I didn’t just want my daughter to have these self-rescue skills — I wanted every child to have them. That’s when I knew this was what I was meant to do. I wanted to help save babies from drowning. That’s why I became an ISR instructor.
