Who Is Brickmaster Amy From LEGO Masters?

Brickmaster Amy definitely knows her way around a LEGO set — according to The Brothers Brick, in real life she's Amy Corbett, Senior Design Manager and product lead at the LEGO Group. After working with Engineers Without Boarders to help farmers process their own coffee crops in 2011 (via TV Overmind), she joined LEGO Group as a manager and has worked with the company for over seven years. She has a background in product design engineering, according to an interview with Decider

Among Amy's duties at LEGO is helping the company design product lines; she worked on the LEGO Friends line, and did some concept level work on "The LEGO Movie Part 2: The Second Part." She also worked on the LEGO Disney line and currently works on Dots, LEGO's arts and crafts line which lets kids make such objects as bracelets and picture frames.

"As soon as I saw it was on the TV I was like, I want to do this if an opportunity comes up. It's just so amazing to see people outside of LEGO and their passion for the bricks, and the amazing creations that they can make," Amy told Decider about viewing the UK version of the show and wanting to be on the American version of the series. When her bosses brought her name up for the role, she said yes, which made her a national face for the brand. Not a bad deal for someone who just wanted to make some toys.
