Whitney Gilliard
Growing up in the Foster Care system from 14 to 21, Whitney believes that dreams are for the making and happiness are for the those who pursue their passion. Whitney challenges herself every day to be the best that she can be in all aspects of her life and often encourages others to do the same. The 23-year-old dream chaser is most passionate in the areas of Child and Family services. Often times Whitney will dedicate volunteer hours for those in need. Just as she is a hard worker and in times a perfectionist, she also believes in making mistakes and taking chances. When asked after all the hard work, where would she dream to be, she simply states "Sitting in Washington DC, aiding children", then after a pause, she adds "then going home to see my family."
