In the early part of 2018, Julie joined a Westchester-based firm to manage upscale condominium and homeowner’s associations, focused primarily in Hastings on Hudson, Sleepy Hollow, Tarrytown, Larchmont and White Plains. In addition to her work as a property manager, by the Fall of 2018, she also became a licensed real estate salesperson and joined Compass in March of 2019.

Prior to embarking on a career in real estate, Julie had a successful 20+ year run in advertising and market research where she led multi-million dollar advertising campaigns for some of the most well-known consumer Brands across many of the most respected content and advertising companies in the country, such as Time Inc, Saatchi & Saatchi, Starcom and The Advertising Council. She was most recently Vice President, Group Partner at UM, responsible for the advertising planning and media investment efforts of popular clothing retailer, H&M, during an agency-transition and rapid growth phase into the US.

Julie is a resident of Hastings on Hudson in Westchester County with her husband and three young daughters. To relax and have fun, Julie enjoys cheering on her three soccer-loving daughters, coaching a Girls on the Run team, she is a volunteer firefighter and an avid-exerciser.

★★★★★
"Working with Julie was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment we spoke with her, Julie was on top of it helping to expedite what was a stressful situation: after my wife was offered a new job we needed to find a home, close, and move in, all within ninety (90) days. Julie's process expertise kept us on track and on schedule, navigating bumps in the road without putting us under any undue stress. We HIGHLY recommend working with Julie for your first, or next, real estate transaction." - John & Kait Modena, NY

"I can’t rave enough about Julie. We spent over two years looking for our first home and found Julie towards the end and for good reason. She very quickly understood exactly what we were looking for, she was extremely knowledgeable on all the local amenities and benefits of each town. She guided us so well through the offer (was spot on for needs to get the house with other competitive offers) and closing process. We spent only 3 months looking with Julie before we found our perfect home to raise our young family. If you are looking for your next home, go to Julie, truly the best and most delightful broker we know!" - Casey S., Ardsley

★★★★★
"I would highly recommend Julie for all your real estate needs. Julie went above and beyond helping us sell our home. When I was recuperating from a surgery Julie was able to accommodate me while she was showing clients our home. Julie also was very helpful with our attorney, her knowledge of the HOA rules and procedures were very valuable for having a smooth closing. When we decided to start looking for a home upstate Julie found us a wonderful buyer's agent to work with. Totally professional. So glad that we picked Julie to represent us." - Catherine, Hastings-on-Hudson

★★★★★
"Julie is resourceful and willing to go the extra mile for her clients. Whenever we had an issue pop up during the buying process, she was always right there with us, providing names and numbers of vendors to reach out to. She even would proactively make calls on our behalf to compile much needed information to help make the process smoother for us. If you want a broker who cares about her clients, go with Julie!" -Jeremy A., Hastings-on-Hudson

"Julie is a great partner when it comes to home buying. She is knowledgeable, resourceful, and attentive to her buyers.

She was always available and a great communicator, which made it easier for us overall. We appreciated Julie's partnership and would highly recommend her to friends and family." - K.H., Hastings-on-Hudson, NY

★★★★★
"I highly recommend using Julie for your real estate needs. She is not your typical real estate agent. She helped us look for both rentals and purchases, both over FaceTime and in person. She listened to our needs and was never pushy. She relayed facts to us without judgements. She responded to requests and questions and went above and beyond to make the buying process easy. She read all of the board documents for our coop and helped us print documents and put the package together. She’s respectful, intelligent, thoughtfully and caring. She worked with the sellers agent to help us decide what offer to make without going over what was necessary. Julie goes above and beyond to be helpful and wants her clients to be satisfied with where they end up. She’s also very human and gave our daughter a book and a dollhouse and acknowledged that she was as much a part of the process as the adults were. I do not hesitate to use Julie again and to recommend her to anyone looking to buy, rent or sell in the area." - Amanda H, Tarrytown

★★★★★
"Very professional team that made the sale of our house easy. Negotiated a very good price, always available for any concerns. We highly recommend this team for the sale of your property." - G. Dimant, Hastings on Hudson

★★★★★
"I’ve worked with Julie for the last year and a half specifically looking at multi-family and income properties in the Rivertowns. Julie had been a pleasure to work with - responsive, knowledgeable, and a real partner to me. I successfully purchased one multi-family property with Julie - her insights on both the purchase and rental market were invaluable and she was a great negotiation partner! The property has been a big success - I hired Julie recently to market one of the units for rental and literally within days of the listing going live She secures multiple offers and negotiated a 2 year lease for me at a significant increase in rent . She managed the process efficiently, worked very well with the existing tenants and prospective renters, and very strategically managed multiple offers to optimize my goals. I continue to work with Julie to look for additional properties - she is proactive and a thoughtful agent in finding properties that meet my evolving parameters. It’s clear she isn’t just trying to make a deal happen - she is partnering for the long term to make the best deal happen for me. I would recommend Julie without reservation!" - A. Listerman, Tarrytown, NY

★★★★★
"Julie and her Team met with us and provided a detailed analysis of the local market and a realistic appraisal of our property's potential. Since we had potential private buyers, we were allowed time to negotiate with them before committing. We decided that we could do better signing with Julie, which proved to be the case. Their knowledge of the market enabled us to get top dollar and a quick sale. They helped us prepare the property for showing, provided useful suggestions for improving the appeal and even supplied some furniture to achieve that. A professional photographer took masterful pictures. They guided and supported us through every stage of the process. They had more useful advice than our own attorney which was invaluable from contract signing through the closing. Extremely professional from start to finish. Could not have been more pleased." - Jonathan, Hastings-on-Hudson, NY
