Meet Your New Career Consultant!
Whitney Denney - Your Career Consultant
Hello! My name is Whitney, and I am the Career Consultant for the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication. I am excited to work with you!
About Me. I started my career as a writer and digital marketer specializing in social media management. I later transitioned to higher education because I love helping students set and reach their career goals.
How I can help. Come to me with all your career questions! I can provide: resume reviews, career planning, mock interviews, internship information, and more.
Meet with me. We can tackle 10 - 15 minute questions at drop-in and satellite hours (see schedule below). Or, schedule a 60-minute appointment on Handshake for longer discussions.
I look forward to working with you!
