Challenges and Growth
Despite the joys, Julia’s role comes with its challenges. Notably, she finds it difficult when she can’t see a problem through to resolution due to the nature of her position. Yet, this challenge fuels her drive to improve and innovate within her analytical domain.
Julia’s Journey to TelNet
Julia’s path to TelNet was paved with curiosity and ambition. Open to exploring various industries, she sought a challenge in an unfamiliar field. With degrees in Mathematics and Business, she aimed for a position that would allow her to indulge her love for both disciplines. Julia was drawn to TelNet’s values and vision.

Life Beyond Numbers
Julia’s life outside of TelNet is as rich and varied as her professional endeavors. Growing up in Downers Grove, Illinois, she moved to Michigan to attend Adrian College and now resides in Livonia, to be close to her fiancé, Mitch, who is attending dental school. Julia is the eldest of four sisters, with two still in Illinois and one in Pennsylvania. Her family remains an important part of her life, and she cherishes the time spent with them.
Beyond her professional and athletic pursuits, Julia has a variety of other interests. She enjoys singing, dancing, painting, and has recently taken up golf. A lover of card games, she always carries a deck of cards and enjoys playing euchre with friends and family.
A Passion for Synchronized Skating
Julia’s real passion is synchronized figure skating, a sport she has been involved in for nearly 20 years.
Her journey began when a coach noticed her skating potential and invited her to join a synchronized skating team. Julia quickly fell in love with the sport and has achieved noteworthy success, including a national title, along with multiple national and international medals.
“I love skating not only for the fun programs and competitive nature of the sport but for the feeling of being home no matter where I am. Every rink I step foot in never fails to bring me peace and ease,” she says.
Julia has represented Team USA for five years, competing in Great Britain, France, Italy, Croatia, Switzerland, and Austria.
“One of my proudest moments in life was being a part of the inaugural season for the division I competed in last year, Senior Elite 12 in synchronized skating. This division was created and competed internationally with the hopes of eventually achieving Olympic inclusion for the sport.
“I am so proud to have been a part of a historical season and hope one day in my lifetime I can watch synchronized skating in the Olympics.”
We can’t wait to watch, either.
