History

Jo first got into improv when she took the very first class offered by The Institution Theater. Since then, she's trained at the Institution Theater and the Hideout Theatre. She has taken workshops with Austin visitors Keith Johnstone, Laura Hall, Dave Sheridan, Mark Beltzman, Zach Ward, Jill Bernard, and others.
