Get to know me!

I grew up on the westside of Indianapolis and eventually moved to northeastern Indiana with my parents in high school. My college years at Taylor University included too much time in the Media & Journalism lab, along with positions as a Resident Assistant, Student Ambassador and Senior Class Vice President! If I could do college over again, I would!

Since graduating from college, I have had positions in the nonprofit, commercial, and government industries.

My husband, Mark, and I have two children, Maggie Fran and Calvin.

Now as a freelancer, I help businesses and organizations with different facets of Communications and Marketing, including communication pieces for both internal and external uses, website and social media content, engaging the public to promote business'/organizations’ missions, and brand creation and awareness!

I would love to help you increase your business by marketing your name, mission and brand! Contact me today!

Brittany has been a joy to work with. She is incredibly knowledgeable, works quickly, and always responds to questions in a very timely manner. Brittany was able to help us rebrand and was so patient and kind as we threw many ideas and thoughts her way. She has worked around us, our requests, and timeline with such ease. We value her insight and are thankful to have her as a part of our team.

We worked with Brittany to provide a relevant and innovative training to local businesses regarding social media marketing. Brittany was an excellent teacher and speaker. She shared wonderful tips about how to take your business to the next level by sharing how to implement a social media marketing strategy. She made it easy for everyone to know where to start and how to begin developing a plan. She is great at analyzing a situation and offering solutions and a strategy to get you where you want to be.

We also worked with her to plan and market our largest event of the year. She was an all-star and we were so happy that we chose to work with her. The event and fundraiser were a huge success and we brought in twice the amount of funds we had raised the previous year. She worked so well with our team and took so much of the workload off of our staff. You will not regret investing in Brittany. Her wide range of knowledge, skills, expertise, and interpersonal skills make her a huge asset to any organization or business.
