Co-Founder, IFundWomen
“There are marketers, and then there’s Julia Steele—basically the Swiss Army knife of brand growth, but sharper.
As VP of Marketing at IFundWomen, Julia was our north star across every marketing discipline you can name. She drove exponential growth in our audience and engagement, always pairing creativity with data so convincingly it was basically a masterclass in performance marketing. She’s that rare hybrid of high-level strategist and roll-up-your-sleeves executor who not only sets the vision but delivers results that actually move the needle. (And she’ll build the dashboard to prove it.)
Beyond her brilliance in the craft, Julia is the kind of leader you want in every room and on every Slack thread. A fierce advocate for her team, she manages with empathy, clarity, and humor—and somehow inspires people to level up without breaking a sweat.
If you get the chance to work with Julia, run toward it. She’s the kind of marketing leader who doesn’t just check every box—she rewrites the whole checklist.”
"Extraordinary drive against our targets. Julia brings openness to new tools and consistently shares insights that drive acquisition and retention.”
