Quinn White
Multimedia Journalist
Anchorage, Alaska
Born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, Quinn discovered her passion for storytelling at a young age. Some of her fondest memories growing up are watching Dateline with her grandmother. In high school, she became involved with the Alaska Teen Media Institute, where she started her journey into the world of journalism.
Quinn is a graduate of the University of Southern California where she studied journalism and entertainment. During her senior year, she interned for Dateline NBC.
Before joining the Alaska’s News Source team, Quinn worked as a reporter in Casper, Wyoming. She’s hung up her cowboy hat (for now), and is excited to be back in her hometown.
When she isn’t busy in the newsroom, you can find her out thrifting, doing swim aerobics, or hanging out at home with her cat, Bug.
