After working in the non-profit world for 2 years Britt earned her Master's degree in Educational Psychology from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. During her graduate coursework Britt was an intern at Phoenix Alternative High School in Minneapolis, Northeast Middle School in Minneapolis, and Fernbrook Elementary school in Maple Grove.

Making a positive impact on the lives of students is Britt's passion and she is excited to begin another year as a School Counselor at MN Online High School. Britt feels fortunate to work in such a unique educational setting and is especially energized by the fact online learning gives students with a variety of life experiences the chance to earn their high school diploma.
