    Julia is a Strategy Consultant at SoftwareX, and calls North Carolina in the US home. She began her Smartsheet journey 15 years ago when she witnessed a colleague use something she simply referred to as “Grids.” Since then, Julia has evolved alongside what she found out was Smartsheet, beginning with basic project tracking all the way to implementing enterprise-wide solutions to drive organizational efficiency. “That one moment showed me how strategic information management could transform business operations,” she says. 

    Years later, Julia has now implemented solutions across various industries. She’s particularly proud of a recent project that resulted in reduced project completion times by 15% through automation. “Smartsheet’s automation capabilities continue to amaze me,” she says. “It’s gratifying to see how far the platform has come and how it empowers teams to work smarter.” (Alison Note: We see what you did there, Julia). 

    Julia has been a force here in Community, and one of our favorite PeerConnect success stories. When the feature was rolled out, she was matched up with Community Champion @Protonsponge (Louis), and a bond was formed. She says:

    “What began as sharing Smartsheet expertise has blossomed into a friendship that extends far beyond our professional lives. It’s a testament to how genuine connections can emerge from professional communities when you’re truly passionate about what you do.”

    Looking ahead, Julia has shifted her focus to empowering small and medium-sized businesses to leverage enterprise-grade solutions. She finds great joy in bridging the gap between technical capabilities and business outcomes while pursuing growth. 

    Outside of her great work efforts, Julia flexes her creative muscles through home decorating and furniture refinishing projects. She's also an active member of her local AI professional community and occasionally mentors young professionals in her spare time. Travel and culinary exploration fuel her innovative thinking—she recently returned from Ireland, where she met up with her PeerConnect match Louis in person for the first time! Otherwise, she can be found discovering beautiful pet-friendly venues in North Carolina with her two "feral" Pomeranians. 

    Thank you so much Julia for all you do!
