Lindsey Picard, Marketing Manager

There are no words to accurately express the impact Julia has had on Austin Pets Alive! and the countless lives that we have been able to save because of her. From her gorgeous designs to perfectly eloquent content creation (not to mention round-the-clock work during Harvey), our team has reached new heights because of Julia.

Mary Mattia Heerwald, Marketing Manager

Julia was a breath of fresh air and one of the most capable interns we ever had on our APA! team. It was frequently remarked that we wished she had been closer to graduation so we could hire her, and I know she expanded the capacity of her direct supervisor. We appreciated her ability to get up to speed quickly, develop creative content, and her willingness to jump right into any project.
