Brittany Laree Thompson was born and raised in Southern California by parents who definitely knew how to have fun. When she would come home from school growing up, her mom would have an activity just waiting for the children. They never had time to be bored because of the games that needed to be played. Brittany credits her mom for her love of recreation!

Brittany has received a bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University in recreational management and youth leadership, with an emphasis in therapeutic recreation. She is a certified therapeutic recreation specialist and loves changing the lives of those she works with through recreation.
