Brittany Diltz - PTA
I'm a PTA, who just packed up my life in Ohio and moved out to Washington — total adventure mode over here.
The best part of my job is getting a front-row seat to watching people work hard and get back to doing the things they love. It never gets old.
When I'm not at work, I'm probably out on a trail somewhere, curled up with a book, working on my latest needlepoint project, or hanging out with my two dogs and cat (yes, I'm that animal person). I love meeting new people, so if you see me around, come say hi!
