Biography

Brittany joined RTNF in 2015 as its first Program Officer. She is responsible for identifying leaders and organizations that are creating and facilitating profound and positive impact in the lives of those they work with and connecting those leaders and organizations to the resources they need to scale their inspiring work. In addition, Brittany manages RTNF's strategy, operations, and partner relationships. Brittany has always been drawn to social impact work, but in graduate school she became fascinated, invigorated, and empowered by what she learned of program design and evaluation. Brittany believes that it's important to challenge assumptions about impact and maintain an attitude of humility, empathy, and ongoing learning as participants in the social sector. Brittany holds a BA in Political Science from Vanderbilt University and an MPA from the Romney Institute of Public Management at Brigham Young University. She lives in Arizona with her husband, two children, and a couple of Australian Shepherds.
