I'm a Public Speaker, Coach, Yogi and have been a professional clown, working in entertainment as a performer for over 30 years! With an MBA and a BFA, I have an interesting take on the world of art, and entertainment. A past professor of Music and Entertainment Business students. I am also circus educated, and certified in laughter yoga. I performed all over the USA and Europe. This website is dedicated to my range of skills as a media and content creator, vanlifer, life coach, and group coach. I am president and executive director of Joy First Foundation, and the founder of Joy Shaman Media (coming soon). This "Jane of all Trades" is multilingual, and even her DNA is multicultural, and bonafide mutt of Native American, Canadian trappers, French, German and Irish heritage. A lover of all things that help us through trauma and life's difficulties, her mission is to remind all of us that we belong on this planet, and we matter simply because we exist. Happiness is a choice that we can make every day (and still deal with the hard stuff!)
