Finding Solutions

I

was born and raised on the Northside of Chicago, Illinois. Growing up I had always been around the fraternity, as my dad, Douglas Johnson, was a member of the Epsilon Triton Charge of Arizona State University. Growing up, I was always being introduced to future brothers without even realizing it!

After graduating from Loyola Academy in Illinois, I chose to attend Iowa State University, in Ames, Iowa. If I remember correctly, I accepted my bid before officially enrolling at Iowa State. On the weekend of my signing, I remember hanging out with amazing brothers; Wes Ruby, Abdul Mohammed, Nick Coduto, Colin Wales, and Jack Chisholm, just to name a few. They made me feel right at home, even though I was only a high school student at the time. My pledge brothers Jeffery Johnson and Garrison Antoine were right alongside me during this process, and we have continued to hold an inseparable bond, now five years later.

I moved into the Beta Deuteron house during what we call "work week" of my freshman year and lived in the house until I graduated. One of the hallmarks of our Charge is to sign our table—this is my reminder that I still need to sign the table. The positions I held while living in the house include Public Relations Chair, Historian, Recruitment Chair, Lip Sync co-chair (feel free to ask me about this on my travels), Kitchen Steward, Vice President, and New Member Educator. I was also very heavily involved in intramurals, as well as Greek Week and Homecoming.

After graduating from Iowa State in four years with my Finance degree, I decided to hit the road in May of 2020. My goal was to gain perspective on American Society during a confusing/difficult time in our history. I traveled through 21 different states, including California, Arizona, Utah, and Florida. My travels were mostly by car, and for some nights my car was my home. I was able to go on this adventure while fully self-employed. I was able to generate a good amount of income using apps like Instacart and Door dash, while also generating side income from buying/selling Pokémon cards on websites like eBay and Mercari.

Today, I am excited for the next chapter of my life, where I will be dedicating my time and energy to serving an organization that has provided so much for me. I am honored to be the next Charge Consultant of Theta Delta Chi.
