Jana Humphreys, Director of Learning Solutions


Where did you grow up?
I grew up in Sunnyvale, California and watched Silicon Valley grow up around me.

What's your favorite sports team at any level?
I've been an Oakland Athletics fan for over 20 years. It's tough to be an A's fan these days, but I'm not a fair weather fan so I'll continue to cheer my team. "Let's Go Oakland."

What's your favorite ice cream flavor?
Ben & Jerry's Phish Food. Chocolate, caramel and marshmallow. Is there anything better?

A 1963 VW Bug I named Jake after one of the Blues Brothers

What's your favorite movie quote?
"It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, and we're wearing sun glasses." From the Blues Brothers

How many songs on your iPod and what's your favorite one?
Hundreds and there's no way I could pick one favorite. Depends on my mood.

What's your favorite band of all time?
Band from the past - no question - The Beatles. Current fave is Train.

Favorite inspirational quote?
Who wills, can. Who tries, does. Who loves, lives.

I would love to be a tent cabin camp host at Big Basin State Park in California - a favorite camping spot for my family.

As a remote employee of Vivid Learning Systems (I'm located in the San Francisco Bay Area) I think having the ability to teleport would be really handy.

What's one thing most people don't know about you?
I learned to read when I was two. (Thanks Mom!)

Who do you text with the most?
My teenage daughter.

What's your favorite online store?
It used to be Borders.com. Sigh... Using a coupon with my 10% Borders Rewards Plus discount along with free shipping, I'd get a $15 book delivered to my door for 8 bucks. Perhaps I contributed to their bankruptcy? So now I'm back to shopping Amazon to support my book habit.
