General Manager, South Congress
Julie is a South Austin native who earned her chops at two Austin institutions: At Trudy’s, where she started her restaurant career, she was promoted through all the front of house positions to become assistant GM and was even voted ‘Best Server in Austin’ by the Austin Chronicle. She also spent considerable time at Matt’s El Rancho, another beloved family-owned business that is equally fast and furious and puts a high priority on hospitality. Julie is a natural at taking care of people, but she takes hospitality to a new level at Home Slice, where she prides herself on working with people that derive true pleasure from doing nice things for others, just because it makes someone’s day better. At the same time she imparts this noble mission to her staff, she’s also inspired by them: a vibrant and spontaneous group who loves to turn guests on to the experience of Home Slice. Julie wouldn’t be a true Austinite without a couple of rescue dogs, so when she’s not at work you might find her hanging with her pups, or dining out, or another Austin tradition… dining out with her pups!
