Tucson teen meets Bo the dog at White House

Tucson teen Haile Thomas was invited to the State of the Union address by Michelle Obama. However, it wasn’t the first time she was there.

She seems at home wherever she goes whether it’s the White House or speaking in front of large audiences about healthy eating for kids and fighting childhood obesity.

From her desire of learning to cook at a young age to masterful public speaking and getting the message out to both kids and adults, alike — Haile makes us proud!  And for her, it’s just the beginning.

Her mother Charmaine Thomas took this photo of Haile at the White House with Bo the dog.
