Natalie Tunnard was born in Dallas,at Baylor Hospital and went to elementary school in Old Lake Highlands until 6th grade.
Our family moved to the east coast, and while she loved being close to her many aunts , uncles, and cousins, she missed her childhood friends in Dallas. When it came time to go to college, she really didnt consider any other locations but Texas! She chose SMU because of its fine reputation and it allowed her to come back to her hometown!
