A Passion for Improving Mississippi’s Workforce
When Johna Peyton started her career, she never thought her path would lead to apprenticeship programs. She majored in math and spent over two decades as a classroom teacher in the Mississippi Delta. Now, Johna serves as the program specialist for the Mississippi Apprenticeship Program (MAP) where she helps ensure the program reaches its goal of expanding apprenticeship and strengthening the talent pipeline in Mississippi by putting her math major to good use.
