Julie has been named a Presidential Rank Meritorious Executive, to Information Week’s Health Care CIO 25 list, and, in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 Julie was named to the FedHealth IT 100. She was inducted into the FedHealthIT 100 Hall of Fame in 2021.
Julie loves living in Oakland Mills, University of Maryland women’s basketball (#GoTerps), dogs, long bicycle rides, craft cocktails, shooting pool, and hanging out beside a lake or on the beach. Not necessarily in that order.
