About Julie
Hi Everyone!
I’ve spent much of my life exploring how to cultivate a healthier, happier, and more energized lifestyle through the balance of body, mind, and spirit. I believe in personalized wellness solutions, because each individual, company, and institution has unique needs.
As a child, I trained as an aspiring Olympic gymnast under Russian coaches, where I learned discipline and how to achieve mastery over my body. Later, my study of yoga, meditation, and nutrition helped me understand the importance of balancing not just my physical health, but my mind and spirit as well. Through this journey, I also discovered that qualities like ambition, discipline, courage, resourcefulness, passion, resilience, balance, and self-acceptance are crucial to long-term well-being.
I live in New York City where I enjoy an active lifestyle that includes yoga, running, skiing, tennis, hiking, and mindfulness practices. My holistic approach supports a harmonious balance of wellness, family, friends, and work.
I work with individuals, corporations, non-profits, and educational institutions to create customized wellness strategies that address all aspects of health—from plant-based nutrition to fitness, sleep, and mindfulness. My signature Leadership and Wellness program helps professionals integrate these practices to achieve sustained health, balance, and leadership success.
