There're so many sides to each and every one of us. We're never just one thing. How many times have you been happy & sad in the same moment?
How many times have you felt lonely in a crowded room?
I want to explore those complex emotions through stories. And there are so many to tell. I hope to always find the MAGIC, JOY and MUSIC in each one I get the chance to be a part of.
And now here's the Fun Facts portion of the website:
My name is
Jean Ann, but
my friends,
and baristas,
call me JAG.
I had an imaginary friend named LaLu, but she ran away from home years ago.
I curse like a sailor when I drive
(btw, stop signs are not optional).
Hearing people
chew drives me crazy!
I had a
spiritual/out of body
experience singing
in a pub in dublin.
I'm strong island proud, so I think I know every lyric to every Billy Joel song,
operative word think!
I love to travel, and had the opportunity to see the world touring with the NYC PLAYERS,
but there's no place like home.
My high school math teacher told me I was the next pat Benatar.
(He went to high school with her.)
If I could live in another place & time, it would be Laurel Canyon, ca in the 1970s.
My favorite film is "Cinema Paradiso" and I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME!
I love both whiskey,
and red wine.
But if I had to
choose a
cocktail, it
would be a
manhattan!

I've wanted to be a
singer since I was
3 years old, when
I made my debut
on my uncle's
coffee
table (that song was Jingle Bells).
