After growing up in a Southern California desert town, Juli moved to San Francisco to attend San Francisco State University. Graduating with a Communications and Marketing degree she held various eclectic jobs while living in the city. Her experience while working as a manager at a busy French bakery, a local high-end flower boutique, and also as an office manager at a structural engineering company has provided her with a unique and resourceful perspective.

Juli recently relocated to the Santa Barbara area and joined the Blackbird team in March 2020. Despite the circumstances of joining the team just two weeks before Governor Gavin Newsom issued the Stay at Home Order, Juli has been able to quickly find her place within the Blackbird team. She enjoys utilizing her talents in administration, organization, and marketing to support the Blackbird team and is grateful to be working with a diverse group of talented people.
