My name is Britt, I’m a 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 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, Minneapolis Lakes Lifestyle, Patch, as well as the Southwest and Downtown Journals in Minneapolis. 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 long ago and continues today. I exited daily newspapers for self-care after experiencing burnout. In search of more work-life balance, I found a better pace in writing and editing for trade publications, community magazines, weekly newspapers, as well as advertising agencies and marketing departments. I have continued writing and I hope to share new work samples in the near future. To read my thoughts on the definition of a writer, go here.

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.
