About Trina

Dr. Trina Hess wants to en-lighten you! Her humor programs combine insight and lightness to show you how you can laugh through difficult change. An unlikely mix of academic research and stand-up comedy combine to provide YOU a content-rich (yet fun) way to successfully navigate the changes in your life.

Trina’s clean, clever, customized comedy is perfect for after-dinner and banquet events. Her entertaining keynote uses parts of her comedy act to illustrate how humor is not only funny, but an effective way to navigate and manage change. Her humor programs are an antidote to anxiety, letting you laugh through the lean times, while lowering your stress levels.

Trina is a veteran of over 13 years in the world of stand-up comedy. Her goal is to bring that comedy to the outside world and show people how they can create their own humorous lives. She adds, "When you can laugh at yourself, and at a stressful situation, you have control over it. This lessens our stress level so that we can be more productive.

“Research shows that when we lighten-up, we create an environment that fosters innovation, employee morale, effective leadership, and mental and physical health.”

"I truly enjoyed working with Trina. She has a style all her own, a great personality that shows through in her act."

-- Steve McGranahan
World's Strongest Redneck

 
Trina’s unique brand of humor and keen wit will get you to see the absurdity of real-life. Clients have said that Trina is a “natural fit” for their organization's goals. World champion speakers have called her a “very talented performer,” and say her timing is “excellent,” her presentation skills “impeccable.”


Trina graduated from Clarion University of Pennsylvania, a fine but little-known institution that produced Olympic gold medalist and WWE star Kurt Angle. (He asked her if he could borrow a pencil from her during psychology class; she is still waiting to get it back).

She earned an M.A. from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and her D.Ed. from Penn State in Adult and Workforce Education. Visit her at www.HumorAcademy.com, read her blog, and now you can read her dissertation on Kindle.
