Julie Bazan

I bring to my role many years of working in the financial services industry, career services and as a small business owner. I consider myself a lifelong learner, and the energy on a college campus invigorating. I was a liberal arts major in undergraduate with a minor in education and after quite a few years went back to school to pursue my interest in education, where I obtained first my master’s in liberal arts and then a master’s in educational leadership. I am currently completing my dissertation for an accelerated EdD with a specialization in Higher Education Administration at the Warner School of Education at the University of Rochester. Previously I taught a class at Nazareth College, part of their required coursework, in Professional Communication. Most recently I was the Executive Director of Career Education and Professional Development at the Simon Business School at the University of Rochester. In my free time I enjoy supporting various not for profits that support animal welfare as a board member and a foster home for cats and kittens. My husband and I have three four legged spoiled children, two cats, Chi-Chi, Cha-Cha, and one dog, Rigatoni.
