65. Marva Johnson

Johnson is at the forefront of regulatory policy relating to Bright House’s technological infrastructure, service, strategy and its video, voice and data services products. Known for her thoughtful approach, she has a passion for educating policy leaders and legislators. Johnson continues to increase her activism within the industry, which was made particularly evident this year when she moved up to the WICT Board’s Executive Committee to serve as Chapter Development Chair. Her greatest mentor experience, she tells us, has been working under Bright House’s own Nomi Bergman. “Through Nomi, I learned a great deal about the industry’s rich past, but more importantly, I learned that the past did not predetermine the future, and that we needed to embrace disruptive ideas as we focused on our strategy for the future,” she says.
