She holds a B.S. in Dietetics from the University of Delaware and a Master’s degree in Public Health Nutrition (MPH) from the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill. Julie says, “I’m creative and like to ‘think outside the box’ which may help with program delivery as we all learn to navigate the ‘new norm’ during the pandemic.” You can reach Julie by email at jmw594@cornell.edu or 607-664-2570.
