Ontonio Ballard, Program Adviser

EDUCATION:

• B.A., History, Washington State University, Pullman, WA
• Teaching Certificate, Washington State University, Pullman, WA

I was born in Conroe, TX but I was raised in Tacoma, WA. I graduated from Washington State University (GO COUGS!!!!!!!!!!!) in 1998 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history and I also obtained Washington State Teaching Certificate. After graduating from college, I taught 7th grade social studies for 2 years. I moved to Arizona in July of 2001 (great time to move) and I’ve been here ever since.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy watching sports, especially football. I also play recreational softball and basketball. To keep my hand-eye coordination on point, I also play PS2, preferably Madden or NCAA Football.
