Personally
Britt is an avid long distance runner, novice podcaster, and, as a child of the Pacific Ocean, finds joy in warm water, navigating beach breaks, and the perfect taco.
He holds a Ph.D. in Geography from the University of Washington and an M.Sc. in Community Development from the University of California at Davis and a B.A. in English Language and Literature from the University of Michigan.
