Julie Ralston supports DYP in communications and social media but her title really should be “DYP Support” as she is here to support the staff in any and all ways possible, from cooking dinners for Monday night’s GRASP Enterprises Academy to painting the new REACH Clinic. Julie began her career as promotions and marketing director at radio stations across the country including WMMR and WDRE in Philadelphia and KBCO in Boulder, CO. Her career went to the dogs, literally, when she left radio and opened Struttin Pup Natural Pet Boutique & Bath in Lafayette, CO. For 15 years, Julie built one of Colorado’s most successful independently-owned pet stores before embarking on yet another career, this one in environmental toxins & environmental justice. In Julie’s free time, you’ll find her hiking with her dog and dreaming about the next time she’ll be able to see her favorite place on earth – the ocean.
