Meet Julia

Finance

Julia has spent over 20 years leading finance teams and scaling operations inside some of the world’s most complex and high-growth organizations - from Disney and Deloitte to mission-driven companies in healthcare and education. Along the way, she discovered that her passion isn’t just in the numbers, but in the clarity and momentum that great financial strategy can unlock.

Her expertise spans FP&A, corporate finance, and operational transformation. She has led initiatives that delivered multi-million-dollar savings, double-digit margin improvements, and data-driven decision-making at every level of the organization.

What sets Julia apart is her ability to cut through complexity. She brings structure to uncertainty, aligns strategy with execution, and makes data not just accessible - but actionable.

Finance is her foundation. But her real focus is on building smarter, more resilient systems that move people and companies forward.

Branding

Julia brings sharp questions, grounded insights, and a bias for clarity into every room she enters. She’s not one to start with theories or templates - she starts on the floor, listening, observing, and learning how things actually work. Her perspective on branding and leadership skips the buzzwords and dives straight into real-world impact.

Throughout her career, Julia has built a reputation for saying the quiet part out loud - asking the question no one else wants to, and doing the work most people try to avoid. Her approach is direct, honest, and rooted in experience, not idealized playbooks.

She didn’t build her path through perfect plans or polished strategies. She built it by raising her hand, taking the mic, and asking for the opportunity - again and again. Her brand isn’t about polish; it’s about purpose, action, and showing up when it counts.

AI

Julia speaks to executive audiences about AI with a sharp, no-fluff approach that blends strategic thinking with hands-on application. She’s deeply interested in how AI helps leaders shift from reactive to predictive - how it sharpens decisions, unlocks time, and creates space for more meaningful leadership.

What makes Julia’s perspective unique is her ability to connect AI with day-to-day execution. She doesn’t talk about the future in vague terms - she shows leaders how to apply AI in their workflows, meetings, and even personal habits right now.

With a background in finance and leadership, she brings instant credibility to the conversation. But it’s her curiosity and unwillingness to fall behind that give her an edge. Julia believes leaders can’t afford to be intimidated by AI - not if they want to stay ahead of the curve.
