JAWIB June Spotlight is on Kathleen Whiting!

She may not be a new face to everyone since she's been the Marketing Director for the West Jordan Chamber of Commerce for almost a year now. This job isn't so new to her since she did the same thing about 15 years ago!  Finding Kathleen is easy, she's the petite brunette with seriously good style and amazing personality beaming off of her.  Kathleen grew up in Salt Lake and now lives in West Jordan right near the Water Conservation Park. She says she has the BEST family with a husband everyone should envy since he treats her like a princess.  She has 4 daughters, 1 son and 1 daughter in law and 1 son in law.  So far she has one grandson that Kathleen will gush about since he's "the cutest world wide" and another grandbaby on the way.  Kathleen is passionate about shopping, loves to craft and sew but especially loves any time she gets with her grandson.  On top of working with WJCC she owns a Sno Shack, and has done so for the past 21 years.  Sno Cones aside, she has to have a Large Cola Slurpee every day, rain or shine! Kathleen adores her friends and family and enjoys that her job lets her be out in the community meeting new people. We are lucky to have her as the JAWIB WJCC liaison!
