My name is Britt, I’m a lifelong public writer. This is the home of my writing, past and present.

I currently work in marketing for Thomson Reuters, and I’ve worked in marketing at other large companies such as Elevance Health, Optum Insight and Change Healthcare. I started my career writing for various Minnesota newspapers. My writing has appeared in the Pioneer Press, Star Tribune, Yahoo Finance and nytimes.com, as well as in community news outlets such as the St. Cloud Times, the Winona Daily News, the Savage Pacer, the Duluth News Tribune, High Plains Drifter and Minneapolis Lakes Lifestyle. I’ve won more than a dozen awards and honors.

My career began at a time of incredible loss in the journalism industry, which started in 1990 and continues today. I exited daily newspapers for self-care (read: I was very burned out after watching my colleagues and mentors get laid off, which constantly forced me to worry when I would be next). I was already on a therapy journey to heal from a difficult childhood, and these events deepened my healing path. I also began teaching yoga, learning about energy medicine and immersing myself in spiritual and contemplative practices. I hope to write more about these experiences in the future.

When I’m not working, I study psychology and astrology, write and read poetry, cuddle my cats and spend time with family and friends. I live on Wahpekute and Očhéthi Šakówiŋ territories in the Twin Cities area in Minnesota.
