Dino Fury[]

When both Zayto and Javi apply for jobs at BuzzBlast, Jane offers them a challenge. Whoever comes up with the best story will get the job. Zayto's assignment is to interview Izzy, and Javi's to report about the Nephrite Orb at the museum. After the museum heist, Jane tried to type a speech for J-Borg, but ended up spilling her drink all over the keypad and made J-Borg blurt out gibberish that she inadvertently typed. She later watched J-Borg do a report on electric fences, only for her to touch it and get electrocuted before letting go on Jane's insistence, ending with an electric pun. Jane eventually met up with Zayto and Javi, both having not completed their stories, were about to explain, but Jane, having heard of Javi having the courage he displayed in protecting the Nephrite Orb from the villains, hires him.

She and J-Borg are terrorized by Brineblast, first when they lecture kids about when to call the Ranger Hotline, and later, when they're looking at a billboard with the Hotline's number on it. They escape by hiding in a dumpster that begins moving, and get a ticket for crashing into a police car. TV STORY-Winning Attitude
Jane and J-Borg are part of the crowd that listens to Javi playing his new keytar. They go away after Warden Garcia disperses the crowd, and confiscates the keytar.

Later, when a jealous J-Borg puts several gumballs in her mouth in order to break the record for blowing the biggest bubble, Jane warns her those gumballs aren't meant for androids, but J-Borg ignores her, and blows an unusually large bubble. However, it pops, and gets gum all over her and Jane.
Jane and J-Borg go to Neptune Beach, where Jane encourages J-Borg to try ice cream, even though the android isn't programmed to eat anything. After a near-accident caused by J-Borg's brain freeze, they see Aiyon save the day, and decide to interview him live. J-Borg later tells Jane about a beach party to celebrate the Power Rangers. Thinking it's because of their live interview, Jane decides that she and J-Borg check out how many views the video has.
Jane gets J-Borg to wrap up her interview with Beatrice Cotton when the android asks about Purplebeard's treasure.
During Jane and J-Borg's hot air balloon trip around the world, Jane calls Amelia, and tells her they're extending their travels, and asks if she wouldn't mind running BuzzBlast for a couple more months. Amelia reluctantly agrees, but later, Jane and J-Borg return to BuzzBlast, having had to cut their trip short due to bad weather and heat from a volcano. Their camera is also destroyed, ruining their documentary.
Jane introduces the band The Screaming Zombies for their live stream performance.

Personality[]
Unlike the stereotypical boss, Jane is friendly and outgoing, and has great respect for her staff. She's also gullible, as shown when she truly believes she has psychic powers after getting a "reading" from Madame Indigo. When Amelia and Javi ask her for the day off due to "family things," she allows it without questioning their reasons.
She is also willing to congratulate J-Borg on winning a game, not caring that her own team lost.
