Jon Michael Whitney was born June 1994 in Minneapolis, Minnesota to a rather average family. Growing up most of his time was spent playing sports in and out of school, with little time for anything else. His love for sports led him to aspiring to be a professional athlete. As time progressed, Jon realized he didn't have a passion for sports, but rather a passion for being on screen; a passion for being somebody whom others looked up to. Post graduation, Jon saw a friend of his who was getting into the modeling scene. With the thought of sports out of his mind, he was lost looking for a career to pursue. Seeing his friend's interest sparked a degree of curiosity in Whitney, which resulted in his first ever shoot.

Fast forward to 2019, Jon started to take modeling seriously and began working with his manager Joe Flowers based out of New York City. In the span of 12 months and a series of trips, he did 17 shoots mostly with influential photographers out of NYC. Jon's future outlook is to become internationally successful as a model, and then move into other avenues of media.
