A native of Michigan, journalism grad from the University of Colorado at Boulder, and former reluctant Florida resident, Julie made her plans to move to Colorado Springs decades ago after repeatedly visiting her college roommate’s hometown to do her laundry. She succeeded in 2012, bringing her twin boys, four dogs, six cats, a horse (and a husband) and happily settled on the west side of the city. Her past work includes an 8-year stint as Dining Editor and features writer for Tampa Bay Illustrated, numerous corporate writing gigs, and as a contributing writer for Springs Magazine and the Colorado Springs Mom Collective. In her free time, she forces her family to hike slot canyons in Utah and chases deer out of her garden.
