Julie works at the intersection of AI, operations, and process optimization. She helps companies and universities redesign how work gets done: from mapping and simplifying processes, to cleaning up data and building dashboards that leaders actually use.

Her focus is always the same: reduce complexity, increase speed and accuracy of decisions, and make AI a practical tool instead of a shiny toy. Before going independent, she led sales effectiveness, forecasting, and CRM/ERP initiatives at Dräger and other international organizations, where she cut decision-making from weeks to days and lifted forecast accuracy from 40% to 90%.

As a board leader, she’s also driven operational and financial turnarounds, including shifting an international school from negative equity to a €1.5M positive position while cutting costs and growing “customers” (students) by 18%. For consulting firm owners, Julie brings a very grounded angle on AI: if your data, processes, people, and systems aren’t aligned, AI will just amplify the mess.

We’ll talk through how to diagnose that foundation, how to design practical AI use cases, and how to position yourself as the firm that doesn’t just “talk AI” but actually delivers measurable improvements.
