As Chief Financial Officer, Johnson is responsible for leading the company’s finance, legal and HR areas of the business.
Johnson previously served as chief financial officer at InStride, a workforce education software and services company. There he helped the company scale from startup to a 180-person team helping employees in more than 40 large corporations, including Amazon, American Express, and Medtronic, avoid more than $630 million of student debt, for which the company was named to Fortune’s Global Impact 20 list of young companies. Prior, he was chief financial officer of SchoolMint, a SaaS provider in the K12 education market. He also served as head of worldwide pricing and packaging at Qualtrics, a venture-backed provider of experience management SaaS solutions.
“I am excited to join Aline, particularly now,” said Johnson. “As a company with roots in senior living, we have a unique value proposition as the only purpose-built senior living operating system that delivers operational efficiency and enhanced resident experiences at scale, with a unified data model that delivers portfolio-wide insight into every aspect of the owner/operator’s business.”
Aline’s end-to-end system supports the full resident lifecycle—from sales and marketing to leasing and b****** to care and medication management—while enabling better decision-making through sophisticated reporting and data insights, providing team members increased visibility into each resident interaction and streamlining processes across departments. As a result, Aline supports occupancy growth, increased operational efficiency, and improved outcomes for investors, staff, residents, and their families.
