Julie started her career in 1985 at Essex Company in her hometown of Macon GA.  Essex Company was acquired by J. C. Bradford & Co. and Julie was known as “The Bond Girl” as she spent her early years in municipal bond trading and underwriting.  J.C. Bradford & Co. would later be bought by PaineWebber, which then was acquired by UBS Financial Services.

In 2008 Julie moved to Atlanta as the Sales Manager for all the UBS offices in Georgia and then became the Assistant Complex Manager of UBS in Atlanta.  This was followed by her move to Charleston SC in 2012 where she managed two local branches for UBS.  Julie later transitioned into the asset management and distribution side of the financial industry, but missed working directly with financial advisors and helping clients reach their goals.  This led Julie to transition her career to a Regional Business Development and Teaming Coach at Janney Montgomery Scott prior to returning home and joining UBS once again as the chief operations officer for Trillium Partners. 

Julie earned her BBA from Georgia College and State University and has been in the financial services industry for 38 years.  She is using her decades of experience and skills as a Pareto Certified Financial Advisor Coach to assist our team in delivering a superior client experience.  Outside of work, Julie has volunteered with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society for over three decades and in three different states.  She has also served on the Board for the Girl Scouts of Eastern South Carolina.  Julie cheers for the Atlanta Braves and the Georgia Bulldogs and enjoys spending time with her family which includes four grandchildren.
