Bio
Mark Comerford
Julie was one of my students on the Newspaper Leaders course at the University of Central Lancashire. She was an unusually quick learner and an excellent sharer of ideas (many of which were a lot better than mine). Her innate sense of how markets and networks work is tremendious. Julie has put into practice in an exemplary way the learning's from the course. She would be a huge asset to anyone wishing to find a smart, sharp, funny, idea rich and grounded business partner.
Neil Benson
Julie combines traditional journalism skills with an excellent understanding of the developing world of digital media. She played a central role in digital development at the Evening Gazette, which established a reputation as one of the leading multimedia publishing businesses in the UK during Julie's time as asistant editor (multimedia). One of her key strengths is her understanding of social media in the newsroom context, as a tool for interaction and engagement. Julie attended Trinity Mirror's Editorial Leaders programme, at the University of Central Lancashire, and was an outstanding delegate. I would recommend Julie unreservedly to any prospective employer.
