E74 - I Write, I Chalk & I Take Pictures

Julie and Gregory discuss her passion for social justice and purpose are common threads even when she talks with people and selects projects. Her clients and community partners describe her working style as creative, personable, and authentic. She appreciates the discipline of a project plan, as well as the space needed to innovate. Today, our special guest is a Human Resources professional by training and lifetime student of history, music, and art. 

She has over 15+ years of professional experience spans across international, national, state, and local organizations. In 2004, she started working as a Community Organizer for the Empire State Pride Agenda, a New York State lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) non-profit advocacy organization. In 2006, she began her HR career working for the leading national education non-profit, Teach for America.

The bulk of her HR career was with UNICEF New York Headquarters, where she held a wide variety of roles supporting international staff in-country offices worldwide. She specialized in helping emergency duty stations in the Middle East and North Africa, Western and Central Africa, and Eastern and Southern Africa regions, working on various HR systems projects. Building upon her experience as an HR professional and combining her passion for technology, she now works for an HR software company supporting US-based HR professionals. She is thrilled to be learning new skills and expanding her HR toolbox. 

She writes daily and enjoys photography, running, hiking, playing the piano, and listening to music from the 80s and 90s. During her time at home in 2020, she discovered new hobbies, including sidewalk chalking, hammocking, and gardening.
