Jim Johnson
Jim grew up in Ireland and moved to Hong Kong where he and his wife taught English for 10 years. Eleven years ago, they made Vancouver their home. Jim also worked in the Pharmaceutical industry for several years in various roles, including in quality control and drug preparation. In 2013, he was diagnosed with COPD. Through a referral from his respirologist, he was able to join a pulmonary rehabilitation program. After completing the program, he saw huge improvements in his breathing and felt hopeful that he could continue to improve his quality of life. Jim joined the CPC to be able to give back to the community. He is interested in contributing to research and programs aimed at finding solutions and making things better for people living with lung disease.
