Outside of Work
Dr. Johnson is a native Charlottean, but having been away earning her degree, she has missed much of Charlotte’s recent growth. She is an avid foodie, so her hobbies combine exploring Charlotte and its blossoming food scene. She enjoys finding new restaurants and frequenting local gems. She cheers loudly for the Carolina Panthers and the Carolina Tar Heels, especially during basketball season. She enjoys reading thrilling novels, being outdoors, and family time.
