Hi

Meet Jane, the Author

I grew up in the foothills of the Central Valley in Stanislaus County, California. I graduated from a small High School in Ceres and since, I have had quite the journey.

Following my high school graduation, I enrolled as a student at Modesto Junior College. As a college co-ed, I developed an interest in psychology while working at a locked mental facility. After earning my AA from Modesto Junior College, I went on to study at Sonoma State University, where I earned my BA in Psychology with distinction. I continued my Post-Graduate studies in Neurobiology, while working at the San Francisco VA Medical Center at Ft Miley in a schizophrenia research lab.

In 1988 I embarked on a 20-year career with the US Army Reserves where I served as an Armorer, Drill Sergeant, and Combat Medic Instructor.
