She started her news career behind the scenes at NBC News Channel in Charlotte. The start of her on-air career took her to WCTI-TV in New Bern, N.C., where she was a weekend anchor and reporter.

Brittny traded in sandals and beach days for snow boots when she moved to WHIO-TV in Dayton, Ohio. Brittny wore a number of hats at Channel 7, serving as a weekend anchor and reporter, and filling in on the sports desk.  During her time in Ohio's Miami Valley, Brittny earned an Ohio Valley Regional Emmy and also had her work honored by the Ohio Associated Press and Society of Professional Journalists.
