Interests/Hobbies Outside of School: Outside of school you can find me cooking, grilling out with my husband, doing house projects or out on the lake jetskiing/ boating with friends and spending time with those who mean the most to me. 

Why did you want to start the IB PYP at Huffman? I wanted to start the IB PYP at Huffman because I was enabled to support students for both academic and personal success. I wanted to be part of an environment that prepares students to be globally accepting. I truly value education that is student-centered and provides opportunities for inquiry, action, and reflection. I value that IB values education beyond academics and instills in students to be independent life-long learners.
