Julie started at TileSetters in 2015 as an Accounting Clerk and quickly transitioned to the Project Management Department, where she works closely with all the project managers and also assists Eric as needed. With the growth of the business came increased billing and the need to have an additional notary; subsequently she became a North Carolina Notary Public. Prior to TileSetters, she worked in the Accounting Department at Beardsley Associates for over 10 years.

Julie enjoys the challenges of leading and adapting workflow processes. The electronic file sharing structure she developed has improved the system of contract flow and management. She has also created a Submittal Material Request Form to streamline the way Project Managers review projects and request samples.

Julie has lived in Knightdale with her husband, Jeff, since 2014. They originally hail from Upstate New York and have comfortably settled into the North Carolina way of life.
