A Bit About Me
Miss Julie brings over 25 years of experience teaching and educating infants, children, and families about water safety. As the lead swim instructor and owner of Water Safe Swim, her passion for promoting water safety continues to inspire her work.
Julie and her husband, Troy, have lived in the Lodi area for 21 years while raising their six children along the way. She cherishes her role as a mom, enjoying family dinners and spending quality time at home. In addition to her dedication to water safety, Julie is also an EMT and first responder, with a love for the fast-paced, dynamic environment of nightshift in the ER. She spent 11 years working at Lodi Memorial Hospital in both the ER and cardiology departments.​
Julie’s commitment to water safety extends beyond teaching lessons. She has trained seven Water Safe Swim instructors and remains a passionate advocate for water safety education in her community. She looks forward to sharing her extensive knowledge and experience with you and your family.
