Yours Truly
Kayak Cowgirl.

Julie got her start paddling with local clubs in the area, beginning with the Downtown Boathouse. She is presently a member of the Inwood Canoe Club, and promotes paddlesport across the metropolitan area.

While she is the Kayak Cowgirl, Julie has occasionally been spotted in a canoe, and very rarely on a stand-up paddleboard.
