About+Me

Hello, students! My name is Mrs. Ham and I will be your teacher this semester in Foods & Nutrition I. Let me tell you a bit about myself...
 * I grew up on a farm in rural Arkansas where I raised/showed pigs and my brother raised/showed cows. I was a member of Arkansas 4-H for 13 years.
 * After graduating high school, I attended the [|University of Arkansas] where I received my Bachelors Degree in Foods & Human Nutrition in 2003.[[image:Razorback_Logo.gif width="392" height="175"]]
 * I married my college sweetheart, Justin, also in 2003, and we moved to Austin, Texas.
 * I taught nutrition classes to after-school students at 5 inner-city schools in Austin, and lead their 4-H groups.
 * My husband & I bought a house in Round Rock, and in 2005, we welcomed our son, Austin!
 * After Austin was born, I became a stay-at- Mom, and worked part-time from home for a newsletter publishing company.
 * In 2008, our daughter, Kaylee, was born.
 * In 2009, I went back to school to obtain my Masters Degree in Family & Consumer Sciences Education through Texas Tech University and receive my teaching certificate in Texas.
 * I still live in Round Rock with my family -- we love it here!
