I'm so fortunate to have met Julia five years ago. I remember her wit and warmth from that day while we sat at her usual spot at the cafe's window. Leaving our first meeting, I couldn't have imagined how profoundly our conversations would impact my career in the years after. Julia's empathy, honesty, insight and encouragement have been guiding forces behind my growth. And for that I'll always be grateful.

How would I describe Julia? Candid. Observant. Insightful. It’s not simply that she’s seen what makes leaders leaders, or that she’s introduced me to people and companies I deeply respect. It’s that she consistently challenges me to articulate what I am when I’m at my best. What it comes down to is that our conversations over nearly a decade have been both conceptually and practically useful. I’ve come to appreciate Julia for what she is: A grounding and enthusiastic counselor.

Julia has the gift of being able to really see people and hone-in on their most individual talents and interests. All of the biggest positions in my career have been brought to me by Julia. What she gets that is a rarity is the in-between space, the talents that don’t fit neatly into defined roles and titles. I thrive in a hybrid space between strategy and creative - Julia gets this, has been able to listen for opportunities that would fit/appeal to me, and also pave the way for employers seeing a role in perhaps a less traditional way. On top of that, Julia is great fun to work with!

Julia is beautifully frank, insightful and immediately understood what I was wrestling with, together we worked through what mattered to me and she was able to find a role that ticked all of my impossibly demanding boxes.
Sam Wilson, Managing Partner, BBMG
I've been fortunate to work with Julia over the years through her recruiting practice. Beyond connecting me with companies that showed she really got what I was looking for, she's served as a coach, mentor and person in my corner who has genuinely cared about me and my career growth. She has true knack for assessing people's strengths, character and communicating her expert assessments in a refreshingly honest and always invaluable way. I look forward to continuing my partnership with Julia.
Molly Aaker, Brand Strategy consultant
Over the past two decades, Julia has been instrumental in coaching me through several professional challenges. Her insight, background and thoughtfulness eventually led me back to her for personal coaching as I was navigating through a difficult time in recovery. Julia doesn’t offer instant solutions. Instead, she listens and helps identify objectives around how her coaching call help you achieve your goals. I highly recommend.
Joe Belmonte, Marketing Consultant
For nearly twenty years, I have looked to Julia for her insight about where the job market is moving, and her thoughtful counsel about where I fit in. My career has been immeasurably better for it.
