Julie embarked on her career as a technology-focused Recruiter in Toronto, Canada. Following her relocation to Charlotte, NC, she assumed progressively responsible HR roles within the diversified financial services sector. Notably, she served as the inaugural Director of Research for an internal retained executive search group at First Union. Keen to navigate the flurry of merger activity, Julie launched a consulting company and expanded the industries she supported as well as the scope of work she provided clients. Her journey then led her to the non-profit sector, where she played a pivotal role in establishing the HR function for a newly integrated system of museums. Working with the governing board, her focus on organizational development encompassed conducting 360-degree evaluations of senior leadership and implementing comprehensive succession planning and knowledge transfer programs.
Julie uniquely understands the critical relationship between people and business goals, having completed projects such as opening a new hotel and a new Children’s Museum. A true optimist and driven by the challenge to finesse solutions, Julie is a champion for change demonstrated by working hands-on to positively influence the work environment with a keen interest in the impact on people.
