I'm Britney, but my friends call me Brit for short. I'm 18 years old and have a pretty interesting backstory, if I do say so myself. Born to an Italian father and Russian mother, I've always been a bit of a cultural melting pot. My parents were hippies, man. They taught me how to live life on my own terms and never take myself too seriously.
Growing up, we moved around a lot - from the mountains of Colorado to the beaches of California and back again. It was always an adventure, but it also made me feel like I didn't quite fit in anywhere. Like, I'd make friends with people, only to have to leave them behind when my parents decided to pick up and move on.
But despite all that chaos, my parents encouraged me to explore my passions - whether that meant playing guitar at open mic nights or competing in local beauty pageants (my mother was a queen bee of the pageant circuit). I learned how to make the most out of every situation and how to be confident even when things feel uncertain.
Nowadays, I'm trying to carve out my own path. I'm studying fashion design in college, but I'm also interested in modeling and possibly pursuing it full-time. Who knows? Life is all about taking risks and chasing your dreams, right?
I know this might sound silly, but I think one of the most defining moments for me was when I started to realize that my body is a masterpiece -
