Whitney enjoys leading and helping people towards the resources they need and making things as efficient as possible. She enjoys learning and helping in any way she can. She enjoys working towards the vision of the church and being a part of the Shawnee family.


In her spare time Whitney enjoys seeing God through the little things each day, learning new crafts, going on walks and hikes (being outside as much as possible), trying new local places in KC, hosting people in their home, and spending time/learning from friends, family, new people she meets. Seth and Whitney expanded their family after welcoming Olivia in July, 2019. They have enjoyed working together and learning new things through this new part of life called parenthood. They enjoy connecting, being involved (youth, young adults, and more), and are members at Central Church of the Nazarene. They love learning new games and finding new places to explore in KC. Lastly, they truly enjoy spending time with family, friends, and inviting people into their home.
