Bio
A 30-year veteran of automotive and aerospace, Angela Johnson recently completed a Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering at Wayne State University, writing her dissertation on relationships within supply chains.

With a passion for building bridges that connect people, data, and insights, Angela has led her team to build a cohesive, integrated approach to deliver organizational efficiency and business intelligence through data governance, operational insight, and cutting-edge AI/ML solutions.
