In 2011–2013, she volunteered in Each One Teach One in New York City and at Sharon Baptist Head Start in the Bronx, New York. She has modeled for advertisements for the Caroline Center, the educational institution, in which she obtained her pharmacy technician license where she was fourth in her class. She is an alumni of the Baltimore City College Knight class of 2007 and a college graduate of CCBC Essex. Britley has worked many jobs where she has gained a wealth of experience and growth. She is the mother of two beautiful, vivacious children and the wife of a spiritually strong and imperfect protector.
Britley has taken her life experience and put it into poetry with a strong belief in the term she has coined as “spoken word necessity.” She believes that speaking truth into one’s heart is necessary and speaking opportunities into one’s life is a possibility. Britley is the daughter of a hardworking, emotionally closed mother and a rolling stone, emotionally unsettled father. She balances her immediate family, the family she came from, a day job, parenting, and marriage while still trying to maintain peace of mind within her being. Writing poetry helps her understand and feel what she is going through and allows her to speak to those who feel alone in a crowded room.view less
