Joanna Peresie

Joanna Peresie is a sometimes writer, and full time lover of coffee and Snickers bars. A Muncie, Indiana native, Joanna moved to Burbank 15 years ago, and is happy to call this community home. She has two amazing children, a dog, a cat, six ill-behaved chickens, and a wonderful husband. She nannies three adorable little ones, works with Hollywood Guitar Lessons to provide after school enrichment programs to elementary school students, and holds several PTA board positions at Jordan Middle School. (Go Cougars!) When she is not volunteering at fundraisers or doling out last minute book report assistance, she can be found writing truthful assessments of her life as a mother and caregiver for the amusement and mockery of her family and friends. Find her on Facebook at Joanna Peresie, or Twitter and Instagram @joperesie.
