Joy Hess is an author, artist, educator, entrepreneur, and former corporate professional who has spent a lifetime following curiosity wherever it happens to lead which, as it turns out, can be just about anywhere.
Her wonderfully winding path has taken her from classrooms to boardrooms, through entrepreneurship and always back to the things she has loved most: imagining, creating, learning, and making something from an idea that simply refuses to leave her alone.
Along the way, she has written and illustrated books, designed puzzles, painted, taught, dreamed up projects, and changed directions more than once. Perhaps most importantly, she has tried to hold on to that childlike instinct to wonder, chase an idea, and dream, never quite knowing which ordinary little idea might one day become something bigger than she ever imagined.
Sometimes all it takes is one small spark of curiosity to set something extraordinary in motion.
