Welcome, Julie Brennan, to Atlantic Builders!


We welcome Julie Brennan, our newest team member, as a Sales Associate. You will find Julie working alongside Community Sales Manager Charlie Baity in our Richland Forest model home which is now open 7 days a week.

“Julie is very personable, enthusiastic, and fun. She strengthens our team. I am impressed with how eager she is to grow and learn as she clicks with our team”, observes Dawn Settle, Vice President Operations at Atlantic Builders.

One of Julie’s favorite quotes from Tom Hopkins is as follows:

“No one limits your growth but you. If you want to earn more, learn more. That means you’ll work harder for a while; it means you’ll work longer for a while. But you’ll be paid for your extra effort with enhanced earnings down the road.”

Julie grew up in Portsmouth, VA in a military family. Her first job as a teen was in a retail clothing store. She notes that “I think it is a great learning experience for anyone doing sales. You learn to accept each person as an individual and help them with their needs.” Most recently Julie has worked in property management of apartment buildings.

Julie lives in Spotsylvania County with her husband James and teenage son Austin. She likes to read especially Dean Koontz’s Odd Thomas series and Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series. Julie has many goals on her life list which include skydiving, learning to play the piano, and learning at least 2 new languages. Julie’s dad was in both the army and navy and someday she dreams of owning and running a halfway house for Veterans on fixed incomes.

“I like our focus on customer service and employee satisfaction”, says Julie. She was happy that Atlantic Builders had a fun evening for employees and their families at the local Splittsville Bowling Center in the first month of her tenure here. Julie observes, “Sometimes at a corporate environment that gets lost.”

When she gets a break in the sales center at Richland Forest, Julie let’s on that, “I like to dance in the model—my Ipod goes from Christian to Eminem.” You may not catch her dancing, but Julie Brennan will always welcome anyone who walks in her door with a smile.
