Our Team

Julie is Chief Visionary Officer of Association Analytics and Founder of Acumen. Under Julie’s leadership, Acumen is the #1 provider of data and analytics software to the association community. In her role, and through the introduction of Acumen, she has set out to change the way associations do business by giving them the ability to use data to make decisions with confidence and leverage insights that drive engagement and profitability.

Prior to joining Association Analytics, Julie launched and grew an analytics platform that reduced the carbon footprint and increased overall sustainability for tens of thousands of commercial buildings throughout the U.S. Julie also spent 9 years working at CBRE, a Fortune 150 company, climbing the global corporate ladder to become one of the youngest members of the leadership team.

She is a Board member of Association Women Technology Champions (AWTC). Through AWTC Julie is helping women who work in the association field thrive in the world of technology.  She also volunteers with the DC Youth Mentorship Program to empower others to fulfill their dreams. Additionally, Julie serves on the DC Public Schools Community Working Group for School Planning Committee. As an industry leader, Julie is often a featured speaker on podcasts and at industry events.

Julie believes in the power of hard work and determination.  She earned her M.B.A. in Finance and Organizational Leadership from Duquesne University and a B.S.B.A. in Accounting and Finance from the University of Pittsburgh while working full-time jobs.

Originally from Pittsburgh (Julie says it’s where she gets her grit and strong work ethic), she now lives in Northwest Washington, D.C. with her husband and four children. In her spare time (yes, she has some!) she enjoys working out and obsessively listening to podcasts and audiobooks. When she is visiting her hometown, you can find Julie exploring the famous Strip District or grabbing a delicious sandwich at Primanti Brothers.
