Yes, she’s that blonde girl with an infectious smile that you can spot from a mile away. Don’t be afraid to approach Whitney, although she may look busy, she’s probably just laughing at her own jokes.

If you know one thing about Whitney, it’s that she’s always on the go. Whether it be to another state (with a beach of course), or just to her monthly FFA meeting, there’s never a dull moment in her life. However, she is always down for a good old fashion nap. Her favorite form of communication includes twitter or sarcasm.

When she’s not ranting about how angry she is that Friends was taken off of Netflix, (it’s been over a year, give it up already), she’s talking about how hungry she is. Whitney is a healthy mixture of hard work, sarcasm, big dreams and a kind heart all wrapped up into one little blonde head.

“[knock knock knock] … Penny?! … “[knock knock knock] … Penny?! … “[knock knock knock] … Penny?!” says Adviser Cap, mimicking the irrepressible Dr. Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory.
