The Founder

Passionate about solving problems and putting people at the center of the solution.

A seasoned business developer who has guided several companies through successful global expansion, Julie pairs data-driven strategy with genuine empathy—growing companies without compromises. 

Before founding BDA, Julie led the national and international expansion of several technology companies in Brussels, New York and Seoul: researching markets, competition, listening to customers’ needs, and leading various projects to completion. Her broad skillset spans across sales, partnerships, strategy, change, project, and knowledge management, experiences that shaped her mindful and competitive approach. Today, she is serving as clients’ trusted advisor, advocate, and advantage for all things revenue growth.

The service frameworks offered by BDA’s team are based on Julie’s real-world business education that followed a robust academic career where Julie earned a bachelor’s degree in Political Sciences and two master’s degrees: a MSc in Management from Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Brussels, Belgium) and a MSc in Information and Knowledge Strategy from Columbia University (New York, USA). 

Born in Belgium, Julie is also fluent in English, French, and Dutch. An eternal student and extensive world traveler who has previously resided in Brussels, New York, Tokyo, and Seoul, she loves learning about different cultures and companies.
