Jean Rogers

Jean grew up in Goshen, Indiana. She was a band nerd and played flute and piccolo in marching band, concert band, and pep band. She moved to Indianapolis, finished college, and became an editor of the technology For Dummies books. One day, a fellow editor and friend asked Jean if she’d ever thought about taking martial arts classes. Jean shrugged and said she’d thought about it, not expecting anything to come from that conversation. To Jean’s surprise, they soon went to a trial class. Jean eventually earned her 2nd Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo.

In 2011, she moved to Olathe, Kansas with her family. The thing she missed the most about Indiana (of course, besides family) was her favorite brand of bread. And editing. And martial arts. While she still can’t find her favorite bread in Kansas, she has found something as fun as editing – DATA! And she also has come back around with martial arts working at Kicksite and seeing her daughter start Taekwondo.
