After a semester in Spain and receiving a Bachelor of Science in psychology from the University of Mary Washington, Jordan moved to L.A. where for three years she apprenticed under acting coach Stephen Book.
She moved back to New Orleans after living in LA to found the Crown and Shield foundation with utilizes the power of storytelling to educate and inspire kids. Media is called a super peer because of the level of influence it has on youth, so I believed it was time to start using that for good. We created content for kids by kids and for kids by professionals. But it’s our business structure that really sets us apart from other nonprofits.
