Background

Personal Life

Brittany resides just outside Winston-Salem, NC with her partner and fur child, Pickles the Pug. When she's not snuggled up with her adorable pup streaming true crime documentaries or reality TV, Brittany is deep in her yoga and meditation practice. Her love for the outdoors stems from her upbringing in the mountainous region of Asheville, NC. So, you can often find her on a spontaneous camping trip or hiking to a gorgeous view in search of relaxation, clarity, and increased serotonin. Brittany appreciates spending time with open-minded souls who enjoy a hot cup of coffee, and aren’t quick to judge her love of reading cheesy romance novels!
