Whitney joined the Living Local 360 team in May 2010. As the Creative Director, she is what makes our words and photos come to life! She attended Eastern Washington University and while there worked as an intern and built a website for Division for International and Education Outreach. She and Living Local 360 owner Steve Russo have designed this website as well.

 

Whitney and her husband Martin live in Post Falls, Idaho. When not glued to her computer, she enjoys being outdoors, hiking, boating, or playing with her dog. But it is her work with small businesses that she enjoys most about working with Living Local 360.

 

“I like working with the community and giving the smaller businesses a chance to be heard,” said Whitney. “It’s a great feeling when you create an ad for someone and you hear how excited they are to be getting more business because of it.”

 

Always an optimist, Whitney’s favorite quote is “Everything happens for a reason.” She says the person she admires most is her father, a network administrator at EWU. She said he works hard and knows how to do just about anything. She says he has always done what he could to help her succeed in life – and her colleagues at Living Local 360 agree he has done a great job!
