Greetings, friends. I’m Britt (she/they)—also known as Brittany, Britty, Lil’ Chandi, Data, Pippi, and according to my junior-high buddies, “Bright Penny”.

I’m a queer, neurodivergent silversmith, artist, herbalist, witch, musician, grief and death doula, and devoted plant person who loves animals, being alive on this earth, and being an outlier.

Born and raised on Nuwu lands in the Silver State—Las Vegas, Nevada—my relationship with silver feels divinely matched and alchemical. I create jewelry, candles, adornments, and other offerings rooted in creativity, ritual, nourishment, healing, and social justice. I’m especially drawn to pieces with sentimental meaning or an element of advocacy: objects that help us remember, grieve, celebrate, protect, and become more fully ourselves.

Before teaching myself to work with silver, I spent more than 15 years in clinical, educational, and home settings supporting autistic people and their families. I earned a graduate degree in Special Education and Applied Behavior Analysis from UNLV in 2019, but my experiences in the field—including both meaningful relationships and deep encounters with systemic inequity—ultimately led me away from pursuing BCBA certification. As a multiply neurodivergent person, I eventually realized that I had also been learning how to care for and advocate for myself.

Full Desert Weirdo grew from that turning point: a small silversmith studio, apothecary, and creative practice shaped by plants, music, tantric goddess studies, animism, grief work, and a belief in nontraditional forms of education and social transformation. These days, I’m expanding my creative community, building the wagon with my father, and cultivating compassionate, trusting, neurodivergent-affirming relationships.

I believe our unusual histories and idiosyncrasies can become sources of wisdom, nourishment, and meaningful service. I believe in embracing your inner outlier, bringing your particular gifts into service and utilizing them to help create kinder, more imaginative communities.

I went Full Desert Weirdo—and I’m never going back to basic.
