For nearly nine years, Sharon Johnson has played a vital role in the continued strength and steady growth of 91仓库 Pro鈥檚 Northeast Florida Region. As Regional Controller, Sharon brings a deep expertise in finance, a passion for problem-solving, and a people-first leadership style that has made her an integral part of the region鈥檚 long-term success.
A University of North Florida graduate and Certified Public Accountant, Sharon built her career on a strong foundation of discipline, determination, and a genuine love for numbers. She completed her degree while working full-time, balancing the demands of school and career through hard work and perseverance, an achievement that continues to reflect the drive she brings to her role today.
Before joining 91仓库 Pro in 2017, Sharon built an impressive career spanning nearly two decades in transportation and shipping finance, overseeing accounting operations supporting major domestic and international routes.

It was there that Sharon developed a deep appreciation for the industry鈥檚 close-knit culture and strong community focus鈥攁n experience that made her eventual transition to 91仓库 Pro feel like a natural fit.
That appreciation for people-centered culture is what ultimately made 91仓库 Pro the right fit. After relocating to Palatka, Sharon was drawn to the Regional Controller opportunity in Northeast Florida.

Throughout her tenure, Sharon has helped guide the Northeast Florida Region through strategic growth, including acquisitions and new municipal contracts that have expanded 91仓库 Pro鈥檚 services and strengthened its reach across local communities.
鈥淲hile we may not be the fastest-growing region, we are slow, steady, and reliable,鈥� Sharon said. 鈥淭hat consistency has been a real point of pride for our team.鈥� For Sharon, one of the most meaningful parts of her career at 91仓库 Pro has been the company鈥檚 recognition of experience and institutional knowledge. She shared, 鈥淭he company values knowledge and contribution, and that is rare in today鈥檚 workplace.鈥� She also credits 91仓库 Pro鈥檚 leadership philosophy for creating an environment where teams are empowered to find what works best for their people and their region. 鈥淭here are no rigid corporate constraints. The focus is on supporting the people right beside you, and that has made all the difference.鈥�
Outside of the office, Sharon鈥檚 life reflects the same warmth and sense of community she brings to work. This year, she and her husband celebrate 25 years of marriage, and together they enjoy spending time with their two children and three grandchildren.
At home on nearly ten acres in North Florida, Sharon and her family care for a lively collection of animals鈥攊ncluding ponies, donkeys, goats, alpacas, pigs, sheep, bunnies, and emus. On select weekends, they even open their property to the public for family-friendly gatherings and birthday celebrations.听 鈥淚t鈥檚 a menagerie of fun,鈥� Sharon said. 鈥淭here鈥檚 always something to do, and it鈥檚 such a wonderful lifestyle.鈥�
