As the Perkins & Will Dallas Director of Healthcare Planning, Julie specializes in market analysis studies and strategic facility plans. She is also Co-Director of the firmwide Resiliency Task Force, finding new ways to breathe sustainability and resiliency into every project while improving patient experience and outcomes. As an expert on resiliency, she worked on the first pilot project for the RELi action item list, Christus Spohn in Corpus Christi, to ensure they remain open and operational throughout a crisis through resilient construction, regional response, and community connection, industrial disaster response and epidemic response. She has also worked on the second pilot project, OUMC in Oklahoma City, which is now under construction and responds to an entirely different climate. Julie’s vast experience has led her to be an expert in her field coupling healthcare and resilient design together.
