Courtney Johnson

Courtney joined CCR North America as Executive Director in 2022. Prior to entering this role, Courtney oversaw many of the business and growth activities at Enigma Technologies, a high-growth data technology startup in New York City that builds data linking and predictive analytics algorithms. As an early business hire and executive at the company, Courtney over many years built or managed various functions, including business development and sales, client management, strategy, marketing, and investor relations. She loves helping growing organizations sustain the most nourishing possible culture while identifying the right growth mechanisms to serve their ambitions and values. Prior to Enigma, Courtney worked in strategy and market research consulting for video game and other tech and media companies.

More a “poet” than a “quant” at heart, Courtney started her career in book publishing and has always continued to work as a freelance editor and writer on the side, in order to continue to engage with her first love: the written word. She earned her undergraduate degree in Anthropology and English at Columbia University in New York, and later an MBA at Stanford University in California. A longtime practitioner of meditation and yoga, Courtney exited her career in business to follow her heart’s wish to devote herself to deeper study and practice of Buddhism, and now to the inspiring work spearheaded by the CCR.
