He also serves as clinical education coordinator for rehabilitation services and provides outreach and supportive athletic training services throughout the region.

Johnson earned his associate degrees from Vincennes University, a bachelor's degree in athletic training from Indiana State University, and a master's degree in occupational therapy from the University of Indianapolis. His commitment to excellence was recognized through multiple academic awards, including the Student Athletic Trainer of the Year honors and a university research award for his work on animal-assisted therapy.

At CORE, Johnson specializes in certified hand therapy, custom splinting, and athletic recovery, offering a total-body approach to healing and performance.

A Vincennes resident and Barr-Reeve High School graduate, Johnson enjoys spending time outdoors and coaching youth sports. He and his wife, Katie, have one son and one daughter.
