A graduate of the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City, Julie has worked as a professional Chef since 2010. Her introduction to the culinary arts began at the young age of 12 when her family opened a restaurant in her hometown of New Orleans. Julie has lived many years abroad working in several kitchens in Europe, particularly in Belgium where she learned the art of chocolate making and the European style of baking. In Brussels, she had the honor of being Sous Chef to Chef Tracey Griffith, America's first female certified sushi chef.

In 2013, Julie returned to the States and accepted the position of Executive Chef at the Mockingbird Cafe in Bay Saint Louis, MS.
