Other Interests
Outside of work, I spend my time with my family. Being a mom and a wife is my greatest joy. I love helping in my kids' classrooms, finding fun activities for my kids to participate in, cooking healthy and nutritious foods, gardening, going on adventures, enjoying the outdoors, traveling, and learning new things. I am a life long learner and I am constantly seeking out new opportunities for learning- whether it be the latest course related to my profession (I am constantly taking courses!), personal development, Bible Study courses, computer skills and AI, cooking, or art,... I have a burning desire to learn and try it all!
"Kinspire focuses on the entire family by involving the caregivers and other service providers in a seamless and cohesive way. When families are an integral part of the care team, the best outcomes are possible! All of a sudden children are getting therapeutic activities frequently throughout every single day rather than once a week. I also love that Kinspire makes occupational therapy services accessible to families who live in rural areas and/or areas where the availability of practitioners is limited. The Kinspire model also works so well for busy families who want the on-going support of a therapist to work their child's program into their daily rhythms and routines, allowing for optimal outcomes."
Family Story
"Juli has been incredibly caring and thoughtful in her approach and truly goes above and beyond to help her patients. My daughter has sensory issues and Juli has been a lifesaver, providing valuable guidance and support throughout the entire process. She has a great way with kids, making therapy sessions fun and engaging. Thanks to Juli's dedication and expertise, my daughter has made significant progress and I am forever grateful."
