With Ingrid (Jane #1) figguring things out - the producers decided to bring in a new "Jane" - so here she is - Amanda Naughton.

Amanda was as she says "proudly born and raised in Pittsburgh - it is and
always will be my hometown!  GO STEELERS!!!"  She lived in Pittsburgh until she moved to DC at age 22, right after college  (she went to University of Michigan, BA in English).  

Amanda currently lives right outside of Washington, DC in Arlington, VA,
Pentagon City with 2 roommates. She works in  government relations for a fuel information company - Hart Downstream Energy Services.

Her parents still live in Pittsburgh, along with a number of aunts, uncles
and cousins.  She went to elementary school in Bethel Park and then Upper St. Clair.  Aside from her parents - no one knows that she's going to be on "Joe Schmo 2."  Her friends and co-workers do know that she is going to be on a reality show that is going to air sometime, but no specifics.

She's watched this season as it has been unfolding and thinks it is
hilarious so far.  Since last year's Schmo Matt Kennedy GOuld was from
Pittsburgh - I'm sure folks will ask if  Amanda has met Matt Kennedy Gould. She has just a few brief times - and thinks he's an incredible guy. He is exactly the same as he was on the original "Joe Schmo"   - incredibly funny, sweet, considerate and just an all-around awesome individual.  He has given her some advice - to take it all in stride and to enjoy the ride as "Jane Schmo."
