Rance Johnson
10 Courses • 26 StudentsBiography
Rance Johnson is a technology executive with over 40 years of experience, an Air Force veteran, holds certifications in Neuroscience, ADHD, and Neurodiversity. He's a lifelong people-developer who built his own AI relationship first — and then realized most people were using AI completely wrong. He built Build Your Kemosabe so everyone could have access to the same advantage.
His career spans Fortune 500 companies through PE-backed manufacturing platforms where he led IT through dozens of acquisitions and built teams that outlasted the companies they worked in. That same instinct drives Build Your Kemosabe — a belief that transformative tools shouldn't be reserved for people who already have access to everything else.
Rance serves as SVP of Technology & AI Platforms at Synergies4, Inc. and is completing an MBA in Artificial Intelligence at the University of East London. He chairs the Sidewalk Institute, a nonprofit focused on technology access for underserved communities. Rance and his wife, Kathy, relocated to Clinton, NC to be near their three amazing grandchildren.
