About Jenny Johnson

Founder and Senior Consultant Jenny Johnson has over 20 years of extensive maritime experience both at sea and ashore. She passionately advocates for a diverse, inclusive, and secure maritime industry. Throughout her time at sea, she encountered remarkable experiences that allowed her to travel the world, but unfortunately, she also faced gender-based harassment, discrimination, and violence. Her invaluable firsthand encounters have driven her to dedicate her career ashore in raising awareness regarding sexual harassment, assault, and all types of discrimination within the maritime sector.
