Julia Plott’s journey at Rivergate Marketing is as dynamic as her bright smile and creative approach to her work. From spearheading innovative video projects to fostering a collaborative team spirit, Julia’s contributions are both impactful and inspiring.
Meet Julia Plott, Rivergate Marketing’s dynamic Digital Account Lead. Julia first began her career at Rivergate Marketing in October 2022 as a part-time Digital Marketing Specialist, following her graduation from The University of Amsterdam in 2021 with a Communication Science Degree. Her dedication and enthusiasm quickly shone through, leading to a full-time position within six months. From there, Julia’s role continued to evolve, culminating in her recent promotion to Digital Account Lead. “I am very lucky to get to manage some awesome clients,” she shares. “I work to stay on top of deadlines and upcoming opportunities, while also writing technical content for them – from blogs to case studies.”
Outside of her natural talent for account leadership, one of Julia’s most notable contributions at Rivergate has been her drive to integrate video creation into the company’s marketing strategy. Recognizing the heightened demand for video content, and drawing on her personal experience in creating music videos and other photography projects, Julia took the initiative to add this valuable tool to Rivergate’s offering. She has now successfully published two video employee spotlights and has just finished a corporate video. “I have been excited to bring something I am passionate about – photography and videography – to the job that I love!”
“At Rivergate Marketing, we pride ourselves on being a team that not only delivers exceptional results for our clients, but also embodies the values we stand for. Julia exemplifies this perfectly,” said company president Georgia Whalen. “Julia especially embodies our values of ‘client obsession,’ ‘desire, dedication and determination,’ and ‘continuous improvement.’ She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure our clients receive the highest level of care and service. Julia confidently spearheads new initiatives, such as our expansion into video services to help clients reach their audiences in new ways. We are incredibly fortunate to have her as part of our team.”
Julia is celebrated by her colleagues for her unwavering team spirit. Known for her can-do attitude, she can often be seen offering to take on extra tasks to support her team, even when her own workload is overflowing. Outside of being a true team player, her growth mindset and willingness to learn set her part:
“Julia's remarkable attention to detail ensures she addresses every need of both her clients and the Rivergate team. She is eager to learn more, to improve, and to continually expand both her knowledge base and her professional skills. She embraces feedback of all kinds and always finds a way to improve herself and her work accordingly. She is bright, attentive, and overall a really fun person to work with!”
Reflecting on her time at Rivergate, Julia expresses heartfelt appreciation for her team and the company culture. “Working for a team of powerful women, the flexibility and understanding that life doesn’t always stop from 9-5, and the compassion we have for each other – these are just a few of the reasons I love working here. I’ve also loved learning and growing within the technical landscape; as my mom used to say, ‘If I’m not learning, I’m not happy.’ Rivergate Marketing has taught me that change never stops. Internally and externally, change is a force that should be embraced!”
Beyond her professional accomplishments, Julia leads a vibrant and adventurous life outside of the virtual office. Originally from Atlanta, GA, she now spends her time between Atlanta and Mexico City, where her mother resides. Julia’s background is diverse, shaped by travels from Uruguay to Amsterdam. Raised by journalist parents who instilled in her a love for storytelling and curiosity, she developed a global perspective from a young age.
In her personal time, Julia enjoys running, writing, and dancing. She starts her days with a light run and loves a good dance class. Adding to her colorful life, Julia has just welcomed a new pet kitten to her family. Catana has quickly become a beloved member of her household (and the Rivergate team!).
Julia’s journey at Rivergate is a testament to her hard work, creativity, and unwavering commitment to growth. Her impact on the team and her clients is seen and felt every day at Rivergate, and her drive and dedication continues to inspire those around her.
