Who I am: I’m Johnnie! I live in Milwaukee, WI but I’m hopefully headed to Los Angeles soon. I’m studying Marketing at MATC and I work at a nursing home. When I’m not working you can catch me watching Supernatural, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, or The O.C. If a show or movie has vampires, zombies, or witches in it I’ll probably watch it if I haven’t already seen it. My Keurig is the next best thing since sliced bread. One of my favorite things about Milwaukee is Summerfest, if you haven’t heard about it look it up, it’s fantastic.
My position at Feed Our Children NOW!: I am the Promo Team Coordinator and help out with social media.
What that means: I send out emails to the promo team asking them to help us spread the word about events and other things going on with Feed Our Children NOW! With social media I help post on any social networks and help out with anything else that I get asked to do.
How I got here: I was interested in helping out more so I emailed asking if they needed anyone and after a couple of emails and phone calls later I was brought on to be a part of the team.
Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped: The Early November, Story of the Year, Real Friends, Man Overboard, Hawthorne Heights, and Motion City Soundtrack.
Breathe Carolina will be on YouNow Thursday @ 7PM PST (10PM EST) to chat about their show at the Troubadour and Feed Our Children NOW!

Meet Vicki!
Who I Am: Hey-o! My name is Vicki, I’m 21 years old and reside in St. Petersburg, FL.
My position at Feed Our Children NOW!: I am co-volunteer coordinator at Feed Our Children NOW!
What that means: Hailey and I respond to volunteer emails, keep track of all the info, and stay in contact with volunteers all year round and day to day on Warped Tour.
How I got here: I was intrigued by Feed Our Children NOW! after seeing them several times at Warped Tour and decided to email them on ways I could be a part of the team. I was thankfully welcomed into their family and given the responsibility I have now.
What do you do when you’re not doing Feed Our Children NOW! work?: During the day I work at Daddy Kool Records, located in the downtown St. Pete area. At night I am a runner or do merch for local venues. Between those two jobs I have to find time to manage a local band (Lights at Night) and put on my own shows.
Bands I can’t wait to see on Warped Tour: I’m really excited to see Bring Me the Horizon, 3OH!3, August Burns Red, The Sheds, & letlive.
