All about me

My name is Tiffany Haggard and I am a junior at IPFW. I am majoring in Biology for pre-dental. My goal is to become a dentist. I am currently taking four classes this semester; Calculus, Biostatistics, Photography, and English. This is my first semester since I started college that I will not be taking any science courses. I have not really come across a class that I would call my favorite, however, I think I am going to enjoy my photography class I’m taking this semester. When I am not studying and going to class, I work.

I work at Lutheran Hospital in the Intensive Care Unit as a patient care assistant. I really enjoy my job and have learned a lot from it. As a patient care assistant I do a lot of different “jobs” during a 12 hour shift. As a patient care assistant in an intensive care, I also serve as unit secretary; therefore, I do a lot of paperwork and ordering for my unit. As well as secretary work, I do a lot of patient care as well. Working in an intensive care I have been able to see quite a few procedures and tests and have loved learning what I have from working there. When I have free time from work and school I try to spend some time with my family.

I am one of eight children in my family. I have three brothers and 4 sisters. My dad works at a construction company in the planning department. My mom lives in Florida with the youngest of my three brothers. My other two brothers both work at car dealerships in the finance department. My oldest sister lives in Mississippi and has two children. My next oldest sister lives in New Mexico and is in the Air Force. She has a 4 year old little boy and a baby girl on the way. She is due to arrive next week actually. My younger sister will be graduating this year and will be attending Butler University next fall for Speech Pathology. Another big part of my life is my dogs and my boyfriend.

My boyfriend, Nathan, also works in the planning department in the same construction company as my dad. He is 21 years old, and we have been dating for three and a half years. Nathan and I have two dogs, both boxers, together. The older of the two is Kaya. She is two years old and very much a big baby. The baby is Sadi, and she is only nine months old. Sadi is our brave, daring little puppy. They are both very spoiled animals.

When I have time, I like to watch movies. I watch all types of movies, but I most commonly watch comedy. My favorite movie is The Sweetest Thing. I also enjoy going to the Coliseum and watching hockey games when I get a chance. Even though hockey is a low scoring game, it can be exciting when both teams are good.

You are an excellent writer Tiffany. I could see obviously an ICU paper, or a photography paper - how someone like Henri Cartier Bresson or Ernst Hass changed the face of photography (and even maybe history) through their work.
