Biography

Whitney Leggett is a storyteller at heart, with a decades-long foundation in journalism that began in a high school newsroom, where she first discovered the spark that shaped her career. After 10 years as a community journalist, she shifted her focus to marketing and communications, bringing that same passion for sharing stories to the nonprofit, healthcare and public sectors.

Her work is guided by the belief that everyone has a story to tell, and it is a privilege to help them tell it. Whitney is especially drawn to mission-driven communications that help uplift organizations and their work to remove barriers and expand access to the communities they serve.

Outside of her professional life, Whitney enjoys the simple things: a good cup of coffee, her house full of pets and time spent in nature. She loves arts and crafts, tending to her many plants, painting and sustainable fashion. Most of all, she enjoys time with her big family, especially her young son and spouse.
