Early life

Britt won her first major pageant title, Miss Arkansas USA, in early 1982. She went on to win the title Miss USA in the nationally televised pageant held in Biloxi, Mississippi in May 1982. She was twenty years old at the time.

Britt went on to represent the United States in the Miss Universe pageant in Lima, Peru in July of the same year. In that pageant, she finished as fourth runner-up to Karen Dianne Baldwin of Canada.

In 2023, she presented a TEDx, Unconditional Self-Love: A New Family Paradigm to carry on her message of helping families get off of the societal hamster wheel to thrive instead of simply survive.
