What She Does at Thinkwell

Whitney’s bright energy, brilliant mind and bubbly personality make her a perfect fit to keep projects rolling and clients smiling here at Thinkwell. And while communications may be her greatest superpower, she’s also incredibly focused and adept at zeroing in on the details. After all, her parent-issued teen driving test involved executing figure eights around light poles, backwards, all while steering a stick shift. Suffice it to say—Whitney’s M.O. is grace under pressure.

Early Life

As a youngster, Whitney spent most of her time singing along to the radio, making up dances, hanging out with friends and bossing her two younger sisters around. The term “social butterfly” was a commonly repeated phrase on her report cards in elementary school, and – between her wildly creative and encouraging artist mother and her compassionate, people-loving and belly-laughing pastor father – Whitney seldom met a stranger. In high school, she channeled her enthusiasm for others into cheerleading, theatre, choral music and a near-unanimous reign as Homecoming Queen.

Education and Career

Whitney kick-started her college career at the University of Memphis, then moved to Colorado with family after her freshman year to find herself in the Rockies. One year later, Whitney was married and moved to Lynchburg, Virginia, with her husband, Jed. She reentered school at Liberty University, where she majored in English because, according to Whitney, that’s what you do “when you don’t know what you want to do with your life!”

Fortunately, Whitney’s passion for people and her penchant for teambuilding led her to forge a successful career in marketing, fundraising and corporate culture-shaping. Fueled by her stellar communication skills (thank you, English degree!), Whitney helped drive growth and brand development for three prominent Memphis-based nonprofits before aligning her star with the Thinkwell galaxy. Now, she’s helping our clients tell their incredible stories and confidently tackling every marketing challenge thrown her way.

Personal Life

When she isn’t whipping projects into shape for Thinkwell, Whitney can usually be found at church, on the tennis court, curled up with a good book or converting her house into a tropical forest one exotic plant at a time. She is typically wrangling 3 – 4 personal projects at any given moment (power tools, anyone?) while simultaneously wrangling her three amazing kiddos alongside her husband, Jed. An avid TikTok enthusiast, Whitney is happiest when she’s off adventuring and exploring with her wild and wonderful extended family.
