I partner with leaders and organizations to create radical leadership that delivers real impact and remarkable transformation.

Hi, my name is Julie. With over 20 years of experience developing leaders at Fortune 500 companies, I serve as your catalyst for transforming leadership potential into measurable performance. Together, we'll create radical leadership that delivers real impact and remarkable transformation through leadership development coaching, consulting, and facilitation.

My Why. My fascination with understanding how people think, behave, and perform at their best drives everything I do. This lifelong curiosity led me to pursue a BA in Psychology from Yale and an MBA from Columbia Business School, and it continues to fuel my passion for creating the conditions in which people and businesses thrive.

My Experience. Over 20 years of leadership development work—from research to consulting to leadership roles—has given me a comprehensive understanding of what drives organizational success. During my time as General Manager at Delta Air Lines, I led enterprise leadership strategy and programs that consistently achieved satisfaction scores averaging 4.8. Whether designing programs for 500+ managers, coaching senior executives, or facilitating strategic planning sessions, I focus on creating measurable business impact.

My Approach. I combine rigorous business thinking with deep understanding of human psychology, guided by three core values: impact (creating meaningful change that drives results), efficiency (delivering maximum value with focused effort), and simplicity (making complex leadership concepts accessible and actionable). As a coach specifically, I love helping my clients find their own resilience. The most rewarding moments in my career have been helping my clients—like lotuses—rise up from the mud and radiate into the world.

My Personal Side. When I'm not developing leaders, I enjoy attending live music shows, creating beach-themed arts & crafts, cooking Korean food, watching inspirational movies, and going on adventures around the world with my supportive husband and our spirited young daughters.
