Here is a bit about our special guest this week Dr. Jo Shaw in her own words. I grew up in the 80's and 90's. I fell in love with video games starting on a green screened Commodore 64 and 5 inch floppy disks. From there, I continued the path from Atari, Sega, Nintendo, XBox, and Playstation. My favorite games involve cooperative play, RPG, JRPG, and MMO. I fell in love with anime in the early 2000's after my first exposure on late night Cartoon Network. I began to study Japanese language and culture. I enjoy attending anime conventions and attempting to make my own cosplay. I grew up with films; Star Wars, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, E.T., Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Jurassic Park, and Mad Max just to name a few. I enjoy playing table top RPG such as Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, and Vampire the Masquerade. I also enjoy playing Magic the Gathering. I enjoy watching current day content from Marvel and DC. I am avid fan of the CW shows. Ironman and Groot are my favorites from MCU. I want to be a member of the League of Shadows from DC. I attended Comic Con in San Diego in 2012. I completed my Ph.D. in 2015. I have been working in mental health since 2002. I am passionate about helping others overcome challenges and working through their own hero's journey.…
