When Julia became pregnant with her oldest, she went on disability leave due to HG. She did not return to paid work after her daughter was born. Julia experienced HG with her two subsequent pregnancies as well and is now the mom of three beautiful girls. She has done part-time tutoring and mentoring to keep her tech skills current. Julia has also taken on several volunteer roles. She is currently volunteering with the HER Foundation, maintaining the website and building an app using Flutter to help people track symptoms and improve treatment protocols.
