Tiffany Halsey
Hello,
My name is Tiffany Halsey. I am the mother of four active, engaged and beautiful daughters ranging in age from 8 months to 15 years. I have an awesome husband who is a musician and conservation scientist that I love to spend time with, I am a lifelong student and a not even close to elite athlete. Here is a little information about me.
Past and Present...
I graduated three years ago from Portland State with a degree in molecular biology. Having spent some time juggling my daughters' activity schedule and a full time research position at OHSU for a while, I have decided to try and simplify our lives by pursuing a career that allows me more time to spend with my family and my athletic endeavors. My love of connecting with teenagers and my science background have led me to choose to teach high school biology. I am currently taking my first education classes and I am very excited to be a beginner again.
Future...
My husband and I have big dreams to move to Mexico or Costa Rica when our eleven year old daughters move on to college, taking only our littlest one with us. We are both biologists and hope to contribute to the conservation of tropical forests and fish and turtle populations, either as volunteers or workers. I am also working toward becoming a super trail runner. I run my first trail marathon early this summer.
Travel
We love to travel to the tropics! We spent our winter holiday in Maui this year, but we have been to Mexico several times and also to Belize.
Relaxing
We adore recharging and unplugging together at the Oregon Coast.
Soccer
We are all soccer fans. We especially love our own Portland Thorns women's professional soccer team. We also watch the British Premier League and both men's and women's World Cup tournaments.
