Julie Brooks

Julie Brooks is the Director of Business Operations at Lucky Dog Animal Rescue. She has the fantastic job of taking our data, and our organization to the next level. She also gets to dive into all of Lucky Dog's data (yay numbers!) and loves answering questions about all things technical.

Prior to joining Lucky Dog, Julie was a Director of Software Engineering in the healthcare industry. Her last role was Chief of Staff to a major healthcare company's VP of Engineering. She oversaw communication and strategic planning for the 1,000 person engineering organization. Julie has led many teams, both large and small, over her 25+ year career. Prior to going into software development, Julie was a high school math teacher.

Julie and her husband have been volunteers with Lucky Dog for the last several years as fosters, handlers, pup party coordinators, and PU-BERs, chauffeuring dogs to and from activities and events. They live in Washington DC with Lilly the Cat and former Lucky Dog, George (pictured) who is still quite lucky and extremely spoiled.
