Whitsell started his career doing volunteer work and short stints with USA Wrestling.

Whitsell received an opportunity to go work at Simley High School (MN) in 2014 with the Nationally ranked and State Champion Simley Spartan wrestling team. What truly came from working at Simley High School was the passion the State of Hockey provided.

In 2020, he started his hockey athletic training career with the Division 1 University of Alaska-Anchorage Seawolves under Head Coach Matt Curley.
