Dinner with World Changers - Brittany Young, B360
B-360 utilizes dirt bike culture to end the cycle of poverty, disrupt the prison pipeline, and build bridges in communities. Through STEM education, community engagement, career preparation, and events, we equip youth and young adults with the skills to secure educational and career opportunities, while changing the negative perception of dirt bike riders.

We repair and build relationships in the community, uncover new and unique career opportunities, provide and enhance career skills, bridge the STEM gap, and create events that unite communities in a safe and fun way.

About Brittany: Brittany Young is a West Baltimore native who believes those closest to the problem are the solution to solving it. She also strives to elevate Black talent, genius, and culture. It is her hope that she can help reimagine city planning and government best practices, along with providing a model for culturally relevant programming and curriculum.

She wants the natural genius and talent hidden in our cities to be recognized, appreciated, and to be given opportunities highlighting their passions and interests. She sees herself as a “socio-economic” engineer by working to connect talent and passion with resources and opportunity.

Drawing on her experiences as a kid from Baltimore who watched dirt bike riders in Druid Hill Park on Sundays, Brittany was reminded that street riders are natural mechanics who fix and repair their bikes, and they utilize riding as a way to relieve stress. Understanding this, she viewed these riders as assets, not only to culturally relevant education, but to being the link needed to build better community relationships.

Brittany has a diverse background in STEM and education that includes developing medical devices, planning satellite explorations, working in higher education, and teaching K-8 Technology all while being an advocate for the greater Baltimore community.

She currently is Echoing Green Fellow, OSI Baltimore, 2020 TED Fellow, Baltimore Business Journal’s 2019 40 Under 40, and MD Leading Women. Currently, she serves as co-chair of Baltimore City Mayor Brandon Scott’s transition committee.
