What is Janie’s background?
Janie was born and raised in Oklahoma, where she resided from 1957 – 1985. She, then, resided and worked in Naples, Florida in the healthcare industry, all while continuing to perform with local bands there from 1985 – 1997. In 1997, she moved to the San Francisco Bay area, where she still lives. She received her Bachelor of Music Degree with Distinction in Piano Performance from the University of Oklahoma in 1979, and her Master of Business Administration Degree from Nova University in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in 1994. She began the studies of dance and piano as a very young girl, performing in the local Civic Ballet, and winning many piano performance awards. Upon graduation from college, she taught piano and performed keyboards and vocals with a local band that received national acclaim by winning a national competition in 1983, resulting in a U.S.A. tour covering more than 40,000 miles. Her work in healthcare in Florida built her awareness of the pressures and pains caregivers and family members often endure. While in Florida, she returned to school to receive her business graduate degree. She is also the mother of a wonderful son who is in college in San Francisco. She and her husband were married in Chile, and she is now, also, the stepmom of two beautiful little girls. Janie has remained active in the San Jose, CA community by serving as President of Steinway Society the Bay Area for a two-year term of 2006-2008.
