Her current role includes leading alumni engagement activities, developing new streams of student funding, and leading a Study Abroad program in Colombia.

Julie has a bachelor’s degree in international studies and anthropology from Michigan State University. She enjoys being outside as much as she can, exploring new places, cooking, reading, and spending time with family and friends.
