About Joani
I am very good at cartwheels, imitating Disney Princesses, and making soup. I grew up with six sisters and two brothers so I can easily apply my make-up using the toaster as a mirror.
I have taught middle school English (a little like playing Wac-a-Mole) and writing at Brigham Young University and the University of Maryland.
My husband and I are the parents of two amazing daughters. We live in Utah by the mountains, next to a lake and a river.
