Let's connect: julia.gabrick@gmail.comSince joining Team One I've contributed to effective marketing campaigns for international brands including: * Lexus National* Lexus Dealer Association * The Ritz-Carlton* JW MarriottBy looking ahead, I uncover and implement process improvements leading to impactful campaigns. For example, I recognized a redundancy at Team One, created a solution, and achieved buy-in throughout the 300+ person agency that spans 6 offices, saving time and money, while sparing everyone headaches. I also co-led the Mentor Program where I secured funding for a special initiative: each participant can take the Clifton Strengths assessment free of charge. As a result of my contributions, I won Team One’s Endeavor Award–three times! That’s a quarterly award for department heads to recognize individuals outside their division. Winners embody:* partnership * teamwork * collaborationThey build and sustain strong, genuine relationships with people of all levels, taking positive steps to extend the company network and cultivate connections. Prior to Team One, one of my favorite roles was helping a traditionally shirtless, animated rodent complete a milestone birthday. That’s right, I worked on the international campaign for Mickey Mouse’s 90th anniversary at Disney Publishing Worldwide! Our main focuses on the Global Comics and Magazines team were: * tentpole activations * product development * IP asset creation and promotion Since I’m bilingual in Italian, I also managed a team in Milan and worked directly with Disney Italia editorial and marketing. These productive partnerships allowed us on-time and on-budget delivery of internal and consumer-facing media totaling: * 1,123 art assets * 37 translated stories* 14 magazines and comics* 9 art pools* 6 style guides* 4 full-length localized magazines* 3 character biblesTo expand my skills, I earned an Advanced Leadership Certificate from UCLA Extension.

The program deepened my understanding of what leadership is, handling challenges, and building roadmaps for impactful projects.
