Toronto, Canada – Friends of the North

Most likely to cry at least once during any TV show. Least likely to say no to trying a new hobby. Most likely to turn a tough meeting into something hopeful.

Jules has worked in the sport-for-development and nonprofit world for over two decades, leading programs with communities across Canada and in more than 20 countries. She has held senior roles at Right To Play and Jays Care Foundation, where she helped build award-winning, trauma-aware programs for children and youth. A lifelong hobbyist, Jules fills her time with cycling, quilting, tennis, board games, and crafting (the sillier the better). She’s also a coach for an adaptive baseball league, a mom to two teenage girls and two infant ferrets, and she dreams of helping Canada use sport as an upstream solution to the mental health crisis.
