Tonya Jordan

Tonya’s love of making stuff up started in high school. She doesn’t know if the sketches actually convinced anyone in Irvine, KY to say no to drugs, but she got hooked on laughs.

She completed the WIT curriculum in 2016 and is a founding member of the indie troupes The Quitters, BOOKS, and CoCo.

For money, Tonya makes medical decisions on Federal disability claims. When she isn’t assessing how conditions effect someone’s ability to work, Tonya likes to cuddle (read: irritate) her cats, Pumpkin and Kali.
