After graduating high school, Julie had the choice of pursuing art curation or visual communication studies. She chose Visual Communication for 2 years (a mixture of graphic design, photography, typography & illustration) before realising she had a strong interest in Interior Design.
After deciding to follow this passion, Julie completed an Advanced Diploma in Interior Design & Styling and was quickly snatched up by a retail & hospitality design studio for 2 years before joining Siren. Since then she has gone from strength to strength and is now a Design Manager at Siren, across the team with a particular focus on maintaining high standards, process, delivery and training.
At first glance, Julie’s quiet nature may come off as shy but don’t be fooled! She used to ride a skate board, is a quick thinker and well known for her sharp wit. Her eye for detail and capability to think outside the box allows her to present a well-thought out and cohesive design. Julie’s ‘hands on’ approach to design means she’s always fully immersed in every project – preferring to be on site and working directly alongside her clients and colleagues.
Julie likes to spend her spare time being a total sloth – when she’s not lounging around or relaxing at the beach, she exercises her huge passion for cooking, which she credits inheriting from her Chinese-chef father. She loves cooking and eating western food & is a self-proclaimed Queen of the BBQ! At Siren Julie is famous for her ‘man-style lunches’ basically large meal consisting of meat and carbs… her favourite carbohydrates are bread and the potato is King.
