Holly Johnson: Bringing Small-Town Values to Multifamily Marketing
Description
Shiv Gettu sits down with Holly Johnson, VP of Marketing, who shares her journey from growing up on a 700-person farm town in the Texas panhandle to becoming a respected leader in multifamily marketing.
Born and raised in a blue-collar farming community, Holly developed a strong work ethic helping with livestock, picking cotton weeds, and even earning a hardship driver's license at age 13. After excelling academically and transferring schools to pursue basketball, she chose to attend Texas Tech for marketing instead of accepting athletic scholarships, setting the foundation for her career path.
Through candid conversations about her career challenges, including being laid off twice, and personal struggles like her divorce after a 26-year relationship that began when she was just 14, Holly reveals how her natural optimism, faith, and commitment to being present have guided her through life's toughest moments.
