Brittany was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. Brittany earned her B.S. in Criminal Justice Studies from Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois.

Brittany’s favorite quote is “the comeback is always stronger than the setback.” Brittany believes that every individual has setbacks they must overcome, but it is how you handle that setback that defines you. Brittany believes a criminal charge is no different and believes this mindset is a strong tool during your criminal case.
Brittany enjoys traveling and gaining new experiences because she knows first-hand that you must live in the moment. Brittany has been skydiving, bungee jumping, and cliff jumping in Croatia. Brittany enjoys spending all her free time with her family, friends, and her dog, Balto.
