JAIMIE JOHNSON - Partner

 

Jaimie is a self-proclaimed geek with a lifelong love of music, audio, games, and technology. It started early—belting tunes into the floor stick shift of her parents' VW van, courtesy of a musician father who also happens to build killer hand-crafted ribbon microphones.

A military childhood kept her moving, but never slowed her down. She spent most of the '80s in Greece making homemade music videos to Madonna and Lionel Richie and recording fake radio shows with her sister on cassette. Casey Kasem, watch out.

At the University of Minnesota, an Elementary Education major couldn't quite shake the feeling she was in the wrong place. A quarter-life crisis and a Disney World detour later, she found her answer: AUDIO. Full Sail University, an SSL console, and a post house in Santa Monica sealed the deal. Over the next decade she worked on national radio and TV campaigns, video game titles, TV shows, and indie films while building the kind of client relationships that stick.

In 2014, she traded Santa Monica beaches for four seasons and hotdish, returning to her Midwest roots with her husband and family. And as fate would have it, that move eventually led her to become Partner at SisterBoss, where audio, production, technology, and creativity all live under one roof.

When she's not at the studio, she's geeking out over the latest tech or catching a live show. And if you ever need a hand-crafted ribbon mic, let’s just say, she knows a guy.
