Britt Hysen claimed the “millennial” beat back in 2009 as a journalist well before the term ever became hot. At a time where the U.S. economy was in a downturn with high levels of unemployment, Britt found herself surrounded by a community of young people and artists that were thriving and making a living off their passions. Britt found that inspirational and knew others would too. So she started telling those stories to offer hope to others that may not have felt the same way.
