Gainesville - FL

Julia has been a dedicated real estate professional since 2007, joining Team Dynamo in 2012. A Gainesville native, she grew up alongside her two older siblings and graduated from Gainesville High School. Julia holds a bachelor's degree in Nutrition from the University of Florida and a Master's in Elementary Education from Florida. Before transitioning to real estate, she spent four years teaching first grade.

Julia appreciates Gainesville for its diverse community, welcoming atmosphere, and favorable climate. The city's proximity to nature and other Florida cities facilitates connections with family and friends, while its small-town charm fosters a supportive environment for the university.

Married to her husband Wickie for nearly three decades, Julia is a proud mother to two adult daughters. Influenced by her parents, who were also real estate agents and investors, Julia made the significant career shift from education to real estate in 2007, with her family's encouragement despite the challenging market conditions at the time. Over her extensive career, she has collaborated with hundreds of families and individuals, consistently negotiating millions in real estate transactions each year.

She empowers her clients with comprehensive market data and expertly guides them through the buying and selling process. Her authentic and straightforward approach instills confidence in her clients as they navigate the pivotal decision of homeownership.
