BACK

We’re excited to welcome Julie Kramer to our team as a Software Developer! Join us in learning more about the newest member of our growing BrightGauge team…


In the beginning 

Like many BrightGaugers, Julie is a true local, having grown up in the town of Parkland, Florida. After spending time as a yearbook editor in high school, she took her talents to Florida State University, where she double majored in Advertising and Creative Writing.


Julie quickly went to work applying her knowledge and her well-earned degrees in the real world. She started off working in sports marketing, specifically for an agency that represented tennis players. Part of the job required her to work with the athletes themselves and to travel to a bunch of tournaments (pretty cool!).


Next up for Julie, she worked for a magazine called Luxe Interiors and Design. While managing their digital marketing and website content, Julie realized that she wanted to learn how things worked behind the scenes - she wanted to learn how to code. She quit her job, enrolled at Wyncode (like some of her fellow BrightGaugers), and crushed that coding bootcamp!

Most recently, Julie was a software developer for Telehealth provider MDLIVE. That is, of course, until BrightGauge brought her on.

 

Joining BrightGauge

What was it exactly that caught Julie’s eye? In her words, “BrightGauge has a strong company culture. I felt really confident that the company had a strong vision and they worked hard to create a positive environment for their employees. Everyone I talked to during the interview process seemed to genuinely like their job and believe in the product.”


Julie’s looking forward to sinking her teeth into programming languages Python, Django, and React Native. She’s also excited to learn more about Python’s uses for data analytics and visualizations.


Julie says she feels lucky to have joined the BrightGauge team, but we know that we’re the lucky ones!


Out of Office

When she’s not working on making our software even better, you can probably find Julie outside. She loves running, yoga, playing tennis, scuba diving, and riding her bike across the Venetian bridge, which connects Miami’s mainland to the beach. She’s also not afraid to try spicy cocktails around Miami, perhaps while catching a show at local concert venue The Fillmore.

Finally, Julie’s passion for coding runs deep. She’s co-captain for Code for Miami, a non-profit group which aims to improve the way our community interacts with local government by advocating for open data and using it to create apps and shared resources.
