Katherine E. Johnson

Katherine E. Johnson, born in Williams, WV, and raised in Columbus, OH, is a lifelong learner with a big heart for family and education. A proud mother of three, grandmother of nine, and great-grandmother of six, Katherine treasures time with her loved ones. She’s currently pursuing her EdD in Education at Capella University, focusing on Performance Improvement Leadership. After 30+ years as a financial specialist helping people achieve their goals and teaching credit repair, Katherine is now on a mission to make education accessible for senior citizens—because learning never stops.
