Julie has one big dream: to empower leaders to change the world. She does this by by partnering with The 4Sight Group to develop leaders through one-on-one coaching, consulting with teams, and communicating with groups. After receiving her communications degree from Texas A&M University, she led communications and marketing efforts for Insight for Living, Prestonwood Baptist Church, and Nokia Mobile Phones. For almost a decade, she served pastors and teams at Irving Bible Church as Directional Leader to Women, leader of the Communications team, and as an Executive Team member. Later on, she was invited to serve as Director of Leadership Development for Valley Creek Church where she led, taught, and launched their Follow leadership conference, staff leadership development efforts, LeaderStep leadership classes, and Valley Creek Leadership Academy (a nine month gap year program for young adults). After all this leadership fun, Julie's favorite roles continue to be wife and mom. She has been married to her college sweetheart, Brian, for over 23 years. She has two teenage boys and a labrador who keep her on her toes and expect her to pack plenty of snacks.
