Brittany has made the shift in her career from leading projects as both an interior designer as well as a project manager to a brand new challenge, she joined the HR team and is leading the recruiting firmwide for Cuningham. After 15 years in the design space it became clear that the reason she was so passionate about designing interior spaces was because it was all about people. Creating space for people shifted from a three dimensional space, to creating space to be seen and heard as well as space to grow and nurture a career.
NEWH was a driving factor in this shift, as being a member of the executive committee provided yearly learning around team building, goal setting, communication and strategic planning. These very people driven fundamentals became the catalyst for change. NEWH has been an important building block for growth and Brittany is looking forward to continuing to support the vision and mission of NEWH.
Outside of work, Brittany is the mother of two kiddos, and through the pandemic has learned to lean into new activities and creative outlets and has taken up painting and is currently toying with the idea of more creative writing. She has passed the passion for travel onto her family and just loves that every time they get home, the question is: where to next!
