Our Story

Hello, I’m Julie. I’ve always been fascinated by how people communicate, or don’t. I hate to see people feel limited in their English. I especially hate to see innovative international professionals feel insecure in English-speaking work… Hello, I’m Julie. I’ve always been fascinated by how people communicate, or don’t. I hate to see people feel limited in their English. I especially hate to see innovative international professionals feel insecure in English-speaking work environments. Growing up, I couldn’t have conversations with my Ukrainian grandmother because her spoken English was poor and I had stopped learning Ukrainian. We were the only family on my street who spoke another language, and this drew attention to our outsider status. My Baba was afraid of being taken advantage of because of her speaking skills. It broke my heart to see how some people assumed she wasn’t intelligent because of her English. This is why I help my clients feel confident in their communication and connected to others in any situation.
