Haley Hiatt
Student from California
I was born in San Francisco, CA and lived there for 3 years, then I moved to So Cal and have lived there ever since. I have been playing the violin since I was 5 and the piano since I was 8. The coolest place where I got to play was in the Sydney Opera House in Australia when I was 12. I went to BYU in Provo, UT for college and was a history major/sociology minor. I LOVE history; my favorite subject to study is the Holocaust/Jewish history, San Francisco history (yes, I took a history class called San Francisco history) and the Civil War. I have a daughter, Emma, who is 1 1/2 years old. I absolutely adore her! I am doing history teaching for the MAT@USC.
