The Johnson Group marks Veterans Day in a meaningful way. After recognizing employees and their loved ones who have served in the #UnitedStatesArmedForces, featured Veterans from across our family of companies share how their military experience impacts their civilian careers. This year’s program was emceed by Lee LaPorte (U.S. Air Force), senior director of infrastructure at American Credit Acceptance. Speakers were Gosia Graves (South Carolina State Guard), paralegal at Johnson Development Associates, Inc.; Jacob Collins (U.S. Coast Guard), revenue management analyst at OTO Development; and Keba Moore (U.S. Army and Army Reserves), funding specialist at American Credit Acceptance. We thank these Veterans for their service to our country and, now, to our companies. #VeteransDay #VeteransDay24 #ServiceAndSacrifice #Gratitude

We celebrate the bravery of our Veterans. Today, and every day. #VeteransDay #VeteransDay24 #Gratitude #TodayAndEveryDay

When a little girl’s favorite pastime is creating her own math problems, there’s a high probability she’ll grow up to be a Certified Public Accountant. And that’s exactly what Crystal Mitchell, CPA did. “𝘐’𝘷𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘯𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘴,” says Crystal, who today is OTO Development’s assistant controller. Her early passion for math evolved into a love for problem-solving and an innate enthusiasm for life-long learning. After garnering a dozen years of accounting experience at various companies — including a stint at Extended Stay America during its Johnson Group days — Crystal joined OTO as a tax accountant in 2013. She’s earned multiple promotions and, in 2018, Crystal was honored as OTO’s Home Office Contributor of the Year. Crystal counts plenty of fun hobbies among her out-of-office favorites — think camping, crafting, and flying quad-line stunt kites. She also finds huge joy in her Mini Cooper, volunteering as treasurer and event planner for a club of local “MINIacs” who take group rides on twisty, mountain roads and also raise funds for various non-profits.
