Joy loves her boys! She is the mother of two curious boys and wife to her amazing husband, Nicholas. But she started caring for boys as a kid in her childhood neighborhood and learned a lot about legos, making messes, being wild and watching sports and animal shows. In college, Joy continued to nanny boys, watching 2 for 3 years while she studied. She babysat girls too, but has the most experience with growing young men and helping them become who they are made to be.

As a full-time working mom, she is the Community Manager for an International non-profit. Joy loves to grow networks of people with likeminded goals. She is a certified life coach and has a background in journalism, and has been a content creator for several years.

She’s a Minnesota native and hasn’t moved away yet. Her favorite hobbies are walking, reading, cross-country skiing, and kickboxing. And she’s obsessed with farmer’s markets.
