Julie was born and raised in Waxahachie, Texas, and after college, she came back home to spend 30 rewarding years as a kindergarten teacher. Along the way, she built lasting relationships with students and families and learned that a little patience, a lot of creativity, and of course humor can go a long way!

Today, Julie is a Support Specialist with Texas College Bridge, where she helps students and educators navigate technical challenges and makes sure they get the support they need—without the frustration.

When she’s not working, Julie enjoys time with family and friends, spoiling her bonus kids, nieces, and nephews, and, of course, catering to her two beloved dogs, who are convinced they run the household. Honestly, they may be right.
