In White’s first season in 2019, she coached the team to a 49.000 or better on floor five times and on beam twice. White helped coach the beam lineup to a 49.150 against Oklahoma on March 11, which was tied for the fifth-highest team beam score in the last five years at Iowa State. She also helped the team advance to the NCAA regionals for the third year in a row, a streak which continued to four-straight appearances in 2020.
Prior to her time at Iowa State, White spent five years working at her childhood club of Dynamo Gymnastics, a two-time Region III Program of the Year in 2015 and 2016. She worked as a Team Coach and Choreographer and was named the 2016 Oklahoma State Coach of the Year.

After graduating from Oklahoma in May 2010 with her Bachelor's Degree in Human Relations, White stayed in Norman, and joined the OU coaching staff as a graduate assistant. She graduated with her Master's Degree in Adult and Higher Education in 2012.
As a student-athlete at Oklahoma, White helped lead Oklahoma to a trio of Big 12 team championships from 2008-10, and a second-place finish at the NCAA Championships in 2010.
