She’s currently writing the second in the Colourful Creatures trilogy and a non-fiction book called, ‘Be more wild’.
Julia is endlessly curious about the world and new ways of thinking and doing business. A speaker, an innovator and a born networker, Julia strives to get the best out of the people she is working for and with.
