Prior job that shaped them:

Before working at UK, Julie worked at the HBCU (Historical Black College and University), Kentucky State University (KYSU).

The START program provides near-peer mentorship and coaching to underrepresented high school students in STEM and gives students access to STEM experiential learning opportunities on UK’s campus.

What they enjoy doing outside of work: Julie loves to do anything that involves hanging out with family, especially their spouse and three kids. Currently, their favorite thing to do together is pick a really bad television show and point out all the plot holes!

A goal in life: To write a book.

Fun fact: Julie’s favorite hobby is twofold: one, Julie loves to flip vintage items on eBay, and two, Julie loves to talk about flipping vintage items on eBay!
