Hello, I'm Brittany Hollindale, and I write for Willamette Weekly in Portland, Oregon. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Journalism from the University of California, Berkeley, and a Master's degree from the University of Washington, where I specialized in digital media and investigative reporting. I'm driven by a passion for telling stories that resonate with our community, from in-depth investigations to vibrant features on Portland's diverse culture. In my free time, I enjoy exploring the city's art scene, attending local theater productions, and discovering new favorite spots in Portland's eclectic neighborhoods. Thank you for reading my work and engaging with the stories that make our community unique.
