Team Reviews
“Julie is a consummate entrepreneur. She had the spunk to challenge industry convention and start a publishing company with spartan funds and little prior publishing experience. She overcame the odds to develop a brand that resonated with the mass market. Julie is a tireless contributor and passionate champion of ideas. She rolls up her sleeves to do whatever needs to be done and she does so with a healthy sense of humor, poise and resiliency. I recommend Julie without reservation. She has proven that she has the mettle to launch and successfully manage a business in up and down markets. Partners and colleagues are inspired by her grit and any organization, large and small, would benefit from her exceptional work ethic, positive mental attitude and passionate entrepreneurial spirit that sets her apart from the rest of the pack.”
John Kilcullen, Former Chairman and CEO, IDG Books Worldwide, Inc., and former Publisher of Billboard Magazine and Hollywood Reporter
“Julie is a consummate professional. We worked together on an ad campaign for American Express. The campaign (TV, Print. Radio, Interactive) came out great thanks to Julie's professionalism, business insight and acting abilities. She is a great person with huge ambition and drive.”
Jack Low, Senior Partner/ Creative Director, Ogilvy New York
“When we were starting CHOW Magazine, Julie and Jen were amazing resources for us. They shared their perspectives as entrepreneurs, they gave us thoughtful feedback, and introduced to key people in the San Francisco food/publishing/business world. Julie's attention to detail and confidence in workplace functions always attracted people to her, and she was very committed to making smart decisions about her business. From what I saw, she was absolutely great at her job.”
Meredith Arthur, Director of Sales and Marketing at CHOW Magazine
