College(s): University of North Texas

Teaching History: Taught for one year in Richardson ISD in a self-contained, special education classroom. Excited to spend my second year in Plano ISD.

Family: I live with my two energetic dogs! My mom lives in Allen, and my dad lives in Dallas. I have 3 siblings. Ryan and his wife Kristine are about to have their first baby! My brother Cameron is taking classes at Brookhaven, and my sister, Amanda, is attending Gordon College in Boston.

Interests/Hobbies Outside of School: In my free time I love to spend time with my dogs! We like to go hiking at Arbor Hills when the weather is nice. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I love going to the movies. When it is hockey season, you can often find me at a Stars game!

Why did you want to start the IB PYP at Huffman? I attended an IB school when I was a child, and I found that it had a huge impact on my education and how I view the world. I loved learning about the world around me and the opportunity to learn how different topics go together.
