Julie is the ultimate bag of tricks. I constantly try to mentor young women to be as versatile as possible, and Julie is probably one of the most versatile women I know. She can do creative graphics to the written word to people and events management to leadership management and strategic planning facilitation.

Having worked with Julie Bryant on everything from the Atlanta Olympics and several Breeders' Cups to 4-H horse judging contests, I can truly say that she does "get it". She can invent and she can implement. Seldom do those abilities come in one person. Energy. Ideas. Integrity. Purpose. She's got the whole package.

Julie Bryant is rare find in the horse business. Of course she is intelligent, hard working and creative. She is also a talented writer, a sophisticated designer and a compelling public speaker. She is skilled at synthesizing ideas and building consensus. Julie also has the ability to cut through hyperbole with grace and speed. But what really makes Julie unique in the equine industry is her incredible knowledge of the horse industry. During the four years that I worked with Julie, I was constantly impressed by her grasp of key issues and strategies. During my 20-plus years in the breed registry and equine publishing business, I've only met a few people who can approach her broad range of talent, knowledge and practical experience.
