“I believe Wheelhouse’s value-driven approach is its source of competitive advantage. We use these values to set exceptionally high standards for our work. At Wheelhouse, helpfulness and generosity are not abstract ideals; they’re a daily practice.”

Professional Path

Julian’s path to digital marketing began in higher education. He has a PhD in Social Sciences from the University of California, Santa Barbara. As a professor, he educated students about political communication and digital strategy in collective action campaigns. The key insight from his scholarly work is that effective communication campaigns require a compelling theory of change and a story that inspires people to act.

Personal Passions

When Julian’s not conducting A/B tests, he enjoys seeing his favorite bands on tour and watching the Seattle Sounders compete for another MLS cup. He loves riding his bike on the Burke-Gilman trail and planning road trips around Cascadia.
