Jimmy Johnson is 19 years old and was born on April 24, 2005. He is currently majoring in journalism and is a part of The Rampage publication as the Sports Editor for Spring 2025. He has the dream to one day become an NBA analyst on TV. He grew up in Fresno, CA. When he was six years old, he fell in love with the game of basketball. Growing up, that’s the sport he loved to watch the most, seeing the Lakers and Miami Heat play while becoming fans of players like Lebron and Kobe, and he also would play with his nephew on a little mini hoop.

He was a part of the yearbook team for Edison High School where he wrote descriptions and captions for photos and edited pages. These pages covered football, badminton, girls’ soccer, and leadership. He also took photos at the football games and around campus and conducted interviews. In these interviews, he was getting quotes from people on what they love about the activity they’re in and what they do. He also was a part of the leadership team his senior year where he would brainstorm ideas, create activities, and stay after school to help create posters for rallies and school events. In his junior year, he took an art class where he had to draw and design handmade projects.

An interesting fact about Jimmy is he currently has an older nephew who goes to Fresno City College, and they are three months apart in age. They grew up with each other all their life even going to the same school every year, it feels like they are brothers.
