Belonging is a trending concept to most, yet I've been honing it my entire life, and identity is a necessary ingredient for belonging. Both can be elusive when my birth certificate...well one of my four birth certificates says Baby Jane Doe.
​
My journey is one that includes: being abandoned at the airport as a newborn, competing at Miss America, a 15+ year track record of executive success, viral biological parent searches, and writing an inspirational children's book that started an empowering movement.
As only a former Jane Doe can, I teach others to discover and honor their own identities by weaving my fascinating story into the tapestry of shared experiences that bind us all together. This creates spaces where we are not merely seen, rather truly belong.

Best,
