About Our
Chief Executive Officer
Atiya Johnson, our Chief Executive Officer, has brought her enate ELITE skills, passion, and vision in providing high quality, industry-leading diverse education to the “head of the table”! At 17, she unexpectedly took over her mom’s well established beauty salon and over the years, Atiya has created her own path to helping the next generation create their beauty from within. She has shined a light on the beauty of culture, talent and industry professionalism within her community, when at many times, the beauty industry has encouraged us to dim it! Atiya knew the best way to change the narrative of what was defined as talent and love for the beauty industry was to write the book and so Jana’s Cosmetology Academy was born. She uses her years of experience to help shape the lives of so many and we are excited that she is leading us in just scratching the surface of the impact Jana’s Cosmetology Academy will have on creating cosmetology’s new ELITE. Atiya, with her contagious smile, encourages us each and every day that “Passion without Purpose is Pointless”!
