The Johnson Family
Jamell and his wife, Dominique, relocated to the town of Little Elm, Texas three years ago from their hometown of Gary, Indiana, with the hopes of finding a welcoming and safe home to start a family. Needless to say, the couple comfortably found their new home in cozy Little Elm and quickly settled in within the community. Earlier this year the two welcomed their first child, a baby boy. In his free time, Jamell enjoys playing recreational basketball, visiting The Cove at The Lakefront, spending time on Lake Lewisville, and mentoring local youth.
