Julie's career started in office administration, moving through the civil service, and eventually transitioning into healthcare. Julie earned her BSc in Health Studies from King's College London, which deepened her passion for public health and community wellbeing, and is especially passionate about community first aid training. This stems from volunteer work with both the London Ambulance Service (LAS) and St John Ambulance (SJA).

With SJA, she enjoys supporting local events such as the Barnes Food Fair as well as concerts and sporting events.
