About Brittany:
Brittany Cates is a teacher turned UX designer. An artist at heart, Brittany knew that teaching wasn’t the right path for her early on in her career. This led her to explore more creative endeavors by attempting to leave the profession twice before finally identifying her dream career.
Through career coaching and mindset work, Brittany was able to transform her beliefs in order to pursue a job transition that once seemed near impossible. Now she is guiding women who are currently in a similar place that she once was by helping them reshape their limiting beliefs and sharing actionable steps to help them accomplish their goals through 1:1 coaching.
In her spare time, Brittany enjoys a good Netflix binge, hanging out with friends and loved ones and traveling.
