She was the only girl in an all-boys baseball league growing up. That passion followed her into college, where she found a path into the nonprofit world and began exploring how sports and social impact could intersect.\n\nAfter her family was directly affected by the LA wildfires, she saw firsthand just how much community investment matters. So when the opportunity to join LAFC came up, she took it, and the role took on new meaning by working in her own hometown.\n\nJulia breaks down what community engagement actually looks like inside a professional soccer club and what makes community partnerships work. The three also dig into how a men's professional team can actively work to uplift women in and out of sports, and why representation in leadership still matters so much in this industry.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/QxCaX8yqXufUi3NgsPl1HAU4OgPk_exgqXJix2w72Fg/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kNTU2/NGNjMWU5MWVkZWIy/YmU4YjZiZWRhN2I2/ZTIxMi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
