About Me


  • I am a strategic thinker looking to drive results

  • I am a big game hunter. BHAGs (Big Hairy Audacious Goals) inspire me

  • I focus on the root causes to drive the maximum impact for a business...this is what excites me

  • I look for/run toward the problems that matter and make a measurable difference

  • One of my strengths is mobilizing others to care just as much as I do

  • I believe in people and believe my role is to set up the circumstances for everyone to thrive


My gift is helping people and business' realize their potential. This is why culture and HOW we get things done is as important to me as WHAT we get done. Since we spend so much time at work, it better be a worth while experience for all of us. I take on the responsibility of leading that charge. I am a big believer of leading by example, being a good role model or to quote Ghandi, “be the change you want to see in the world.”



Digital Media Industry Veteran

Over 18 years, I have honed my expertise in all aspects of the digital media industry.

Proven Leadership

My passion is people. I build, enable and teach teams how to drive business results while having fun.

Change Management

As a rule people do not like change. Growing up in start-ups, I am adept at embracing change and leading others to do the same.



Julie is an incredible business leader for the operations, services, and strategic implantation at Quantcast. People consistently defer to Julie for her experience in understanding Media and its daily changes. She led by example with solid leadership, patience and follow thru. I was fortunate enough to have Julie as a manager when I first started at Quantcast and she has truly impacted my growth personally and professional. She is genuinely invested in every member of her team's development. Julie has not only been a great mentor and friend, but has also taught me invaluable skills in strategy and media planning that I will utilize throughout my career.

- Christine Ton (Media Planner at AKQA)


Julie gets things done. She dove into a wide variety of very diverse projects (primary research, rolling out new org structures, standardizing systems, etc) and made created change and results quickly.

- Peter Spande (Chief Revenue Officer at Business Insider)


I have had the distinct pleasure of working both alongside, and for Julie, and highly recommend her as a multi-faceted talent who brings demonstrable value to everything she takes on. Julie is an insightful, strategic and incredibly disciplined leader who is not afraid to take risks. In our time together at Federated Media Julie built a successful Ad Sales Marketing organization from the ground up, continually evolving it to support an ever-changing set of needs, and introduced an innovative research practice that was the first of its kind within the company. I've benefitted greatly from her insightful feedback, bold leadership style and her ability to balance a hard-driving pace with individualized support and mentorship. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Julie again, and think she is a one-of-a-kind talent that any organization would be lucky to have.

My personal interests and passions

Family & Travel

Body & Soul

As a stroke survivor, I have gratitude everyday for being able to move my body. But it is my soul and realising it's purpose for being that fascinates me.

Conscious living

I care about our world and all things that incompasses; flora and fauna; us as humans; the food we eat; the environment we inhabit. The connectedness of all living things. I am mindful in all I do and the decisions I make, as a woman, as a wife, as a parent, as a human living on this earth.
