Whitney states, "Reporting truly is my first love, and it's the reason I chose this profession. It seems, each and every person has amazing experiences and tremendous stories to tell . . . and I truly feel it's an honor to help share them with others." She loves meeting new people, getting out of the office and hearing people's stories.

Whitney dedicates time to M.A.D.D. (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) which became very important to her after being hit by a drunk driver. She is very active and enjoys traveling, reading, skiing, rollerblading and walking her dog.
