Hello! My name is Ms. Smith, and I teach Level Economics, AP Macroeconomics, and AP U.S. Government at Huntsville High School. I graduated valedictorian of HHS back in 2009, and cumma sum laude from SHSU in 2013 with a degree in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Economics. Over the years, I've been a sports statistician, radio host, voice-over actress, church videographer, entrepreneur, lending assistant for First Financial Bank, and substitute teacher. It took a while for me to find my way back to HHS, but I decided to get my alternative teaching certificate in Social Studies a few years ago, and I'm back for my fourth year of teaching in 2019 & 2020!

Fun facts about me: I'm a quarter-inch shy of being five feet tall. My favorite thing to do is to travel. I've backpacked solo through Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Washington State. I backpacked with my boyfriend through Ireland, Germany, and France. This past summer I camped in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons, and backpacked through British Columbia. I don't have Internet or cable at my house, by choice. I'm a musician. I love to read. I love to look for elements of the extraordinary in daily life. I believe that education equips you to build your own door to success.
