Many of you have met Julie James over the past 8 years since she started at ObjectSharp as our Training Manager. As you can read over here, Friday was Julie’s last day at ObjectSharp and today she starts on a new adventure. I want to thank her for making such a huge contribution to ObjectSharp over the past 8 years and wish her well as she looks towards the next big challenge.
When Julie started with ObjectSharp, she began in our Vancouver office and after a couple of years moved to Toronto. For the years she’s been in Toronto she has been a very public face for ObjectSharp and within the developer community in Toronto, volunteering her time to the Metro Toronto User Group and acting as the hostess with the mostest at many of our events. I know she has expressed that she will miss working with all the ObjectSharp folks and the developer community at large, but the feeling is very mutual for us here at ObjectSharp and on behalf of the entire .NET Community, we will miss you Julie and wish you all the best.
Eight years is a long time, but Julie always thrived on building relationships and understanding people’s concerns to identify opportunities where she can help and add value. Julie has helped build a culture of customer service at ObjectSharp and she has left her mark at ObjectSharp and New Horizons for many years to come. I know many of us will continue to ask ourselves “What would Julie do?” as we continue on with her “customer-first” attitude.
Please join me in wishing Julie all the best.
