Julie is founder and president of The Gabriel Foundation. Headquartered in Colorado, TGF is dedicated to educating the public about the complex needs of psittacine birds. In 1995, Julie opened The Birdbrain to provide information and product resources to enhance the human/​parrot relationship. Always a revenue and support source for TGF, The Birdbrain became fully owned by The Gabriel Foundation in early 2008. All proceeds continue help to support the Foundation’s programs.
