Janet received two Bachelors of Biology degrees at Roosevelt, a master’s in psychology at National Louis University and a Certificate in Organizational Psychology at National Louis University.

When Janet is not teaching or coaching, she travels, works out, dances in the aisles at her favorite grocery store, watching movies at the Gene Siskel Film center and hanging out with her family. If she wasn’t teaching or coaching, she would be a lead guitarist for an 80’s rock band.
