Hello
Outside of work, Johna likes reading, trying new food spots, thrifting, and binge-watching crime shows. She also enjoys beach days, making memories with my two sons, skating, basketball games, and relaxing with hot baths and word searches. What inspires her most in this job is witnessing families grow, recognize their strengths, and gain confidence to create the change they want.
