MEET THE TEAM
Kelsey Hawk
Owner/Instructor
I have been the owner and instructor of GC Driving Academy for 4 years. Teaching teens how to drive gives me the exciting opportunity of witnessing this important “rite of passage” in their young lives. I am grateful to contribute and be a part of this special occasion.
I am a native Idahoan and the mother and stepmother of 6 energetic boys who keep my life fun and chaotic at the same time! When I’m not teaching, I enjoy riding our horses with my boys, spending time with family and traveling any chance I get.
Haddy Hiatt
Instructor
Haddy has been an instructor for a year after completing the GC Driving Academy Apprenticeship Program. She is from Middleton and is the mother of 4 beautiful children. Haddy has run a day-care program for the last 6 years; she is a fun-loving, patient and nurturing person. Her endless patience working with young people makes her a favorite with our students!
