A Lifetime of Connection

I am a four-time startup CEO, trained journalist, and veteran disruptor who has spent 25 years shaping the narratives of global leaders including Apple, Google and Johnson & Johnson.

After a life-threatening health crisis in 2022 I rebuilt myself from the inside out, reversing my biological age fifteen years through biomarker science and ancient wisdom. That journey became Rêve Health, a precision healthcare company I cofounded to bring the same transformation to others.

My experiences redefined everything I understood about what it means to thrive.

My History

How it all started

Moved to San Francisco

After graduate school for Journalism I decided I didn’t want to be a journalist (haha!). I moved to SF in the middle of the dot.com boom and started working at US/Web CKS, which became Razorfish. I worked on the Apple, Visa, Sega, Barbie, and CNN accounts leading brand, content, and UX strategy.

    Reversed My Biological Age 15 Years

    After two major surgeries in 2022, I rebuilt my health using biomarker science and an east-meets-west approach. I am now building a new company for other women ready to do the same.

Where It All Began

Freedom Was Always the Point


I have been a founder and entrepreneur for the past 20 years. I was inspired by my grandfather who ran a small store in rural Massachusetts.

In high school and beyond I worked for him, and was always impressed by the amount of dedication and diligence running a business entails, yet also how much freedom you can have over your day, your environment, and even your customers.

That store in Massachusetts is where I first understood that building something of your own is not just a career choice. It is a way of moving through the world.

Work With Julie

The path begins with one conversation.
