What my teammates say
Whitney is an amazing combination of whip-smart and sweet. I have always been impressed by her product management style; not only is she a fantastic communicator and a JIRA wizard, she's a genuine team player.
She understands what UX teams need from a PO/PM and was incredibly easy to work with.
Erika Kalar
UX Content Writer at Rosetta Stone
When discussing research for her product, she considers all angles, potential problem areas, and yet somehow makes product challenges less challenging.
Whitney's fun and light hearted personality blends perfectly with her unique leadership style that I will miss working with. She is truly one of out a million. Maybe even a billion.
Michelle Scott
UX Researcher at Rosetta Stone
Not only is she great at managing a product, she is also quite skilled in user research. She saved my team an immense amount of time and resources with her research. Some people are just good at it, and she definitely is. Whitney is level-headed, incredibly intelligent, and overall a really fun person to work with. Don't miss out on the opportunity to have her on your team.
