She holds a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, is an Oncology Certified Nurse (OCN), and is a registered nurse licensed in North Carolina. She began her career at a cancer center in New York State as an inpatient nurse, providing patient education with a focus on post-surgical and wound care. She later worked as a chemotherapy infusion nurse, administering chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and investigational agents while guiding patients through side-effect education and symptom management. Julie then spent twelve years focused on oncology clinical research, serving as a research nurse at two major cancer centers in North Carolina and supporting the development of new cancer therapies. Most recently, she performed clinical audits for the National Cancer Institute’s early-phase trials, helping ensure adherence to trial procedures and the safe execution of studies. As Director of Patient Services, she is often a first point of contact for patients, caregivers, and the bereaved community, connecting families with mesothelioma specialists and programs, helping identify clinical trial options, and facilitating access to support resources.
