About Julie
"When I was a little girl I always wanted to go on television but I never dreamed I would be a weather presenter!"
Julie studied Broadcast Journalism at the Nottingham Trent University before joining BBC Radio Nottingham as a newsroom assistant in 1992.
After working in a number of different posts there, including programme presentation, she moved to television as Picture Editor and Planner for BBC East Midlands Today, based in its Leicester office.
Julie's break in front of the camera came on BBC East Midlands Today, when in 1998, Julie was invited to take on the role of weather reporter for six months, presenting five nights a week.
In February 1999 Julie became a full-time weather presenter on BBC Look East, based in Norwich. The Eastern Counties is now her home and also that of many of her fans!!
As well as doing lunchtime and nightly forecasts for BBC Look East, Julie also presents weather bulletins for BBC Local Radio stations in the area - BBC Essex, BBC Three Counties Radio and BBC Radios Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire.
WAY TO GO JULES!!!

Away from work, Julie enjoys watching old movies, horse-riding and rollerblading.
