Personal Life |
Tiffany is remodeling her childhood home, a never-ending process. She lives with amazing housemates which include two small children, a teen, and two dogs, Shadow and Patrick. Tiffany enjoys spending time outside--digging in flower beds, swimming, and always believes that it’s good weather for a trip to the beach or a fire pit. In her downtime, you’ll probably find Tiffany practicing piano or french horn or enjoying time on the porch laughing with the kiddos (both little and big) in her life. She is always learning to hold contradictions.. So, if it’s football or basketball season as a graduate of WFU, she feels obligated to root for them…and….GO HEELS!
