Whitney made the move from Brunswick, Georgia to Atlanta to pursue graduate studies in Public Policy and Urban Planning. She has the privilege of working with leading institutions in Higher Education, Quasi-Governmental Affairs, City Government, County Government, and the Private sector. Each experience, she encountered highly intelligent and passionate individuals who, unfortunately, have not been able to realize the dreams that drove them into public service - to use their creative and innovative ideas and gifts for the betterment of communities we serve. She feared that the result of their unrealized dreams are steadily leading the states capitol city and  metropolitan area to struggles with unaffordable rents, new development that overlooks the needs of the existing communities and traffic congestion! (Just to name a few challenges).​​
