About Julia
Born and raised in Charlottesville, VA, I attended Virginia Commonwealth University, majoring in Marketing and Spanish. Joining Invited in 2021, I helped build and edit many of our websites. Now, as the Member Experience Manager at Piedmont, I am filled with excitement for the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead! My passions extend beyond work; I enjoy traveling, having recently visited Spain, Portugal, the UK, and France. In my downtime, I cherish moments with loved ones, including my dog, Mano. Reading, drawing, and the occasional gaming also bring me joy. Reading and drawing have been lifelong hobbies of mine. As for gaming, there's nothing like immersing myself in a whole new world and challenging my skills.
