Meet Brittany Ortiz

Growing up in Kansas City, Brittany grew up surrounded by culture, community, and a love for learning. As a proud first-generation college graduate, she went on to earn her Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology with a minor in Spanish. Her journey has been shaped by a passion for supporting students and building an inclusive community where every student feels like they belong and are supported.

When she is not working with students, Brittany is often cheering for her favorite fútbol team such as La Selección Mexicana, Chivas, and Chelsea, creating ceramics, traveling and finding peace in the rhythm of running. Whether through art, sports, or mentorship, Brittany is inspired by connection and the joy that comes from helping others see their potential.
