Where did the name 'Jaguar Julie' originate??? Yep, I've been asked that a million times ...Jaguar Julie is an athletic supporter and fan of the Jacksonville Jaguars!
I took on the name of "Jaguar Julie" when the Jacksonville Jaguars first hit town … quite a few years ago, even though it feels like yesterday! That name became the name of my "brand" that has been primarily marketed online.
Several years ago, as a supporter of Mark Brunell, our former quarterback, I sold his NFL, Premium Collection, Limited Treasures collectible bear. When Mark Brunell left town for the Washington Redskins, I later donated hundreds of these collectible bears to his local charity which benefits children.
More About JaguarJulie
In the late 1990s, I took on the persona of JaguarJulie to celebrate the Jaguars coming to town! In 2004, I formed my own company, Jaguar Julie Designs to provide marketing consulting and to continue my online selling with a store on eCrater and iOffer.
Since 2003, I’ve been a BzzAgent and used to be a lot more active bzzing until BzzAgent introduced me to Squidoo in March 2006! I originally created about 3 dozen lenses when I first joined, and would create one here and there UNTIL I got that wonderful invitation from Megan Casey to "kick it into high gear" and create 100 lenses. Well, I took on that challenge and despite a "hard drive crash" on August 31, 2007, I managed to accomplish the feat of 100 lenses.
In March 2006, I also joined Stylehive where I found that unique outlet to express my passion for fashion. I actively bookmarked over 30,000 fashionable items into the hive, participated in several contests, actually won a couple, and coaxed MANY of my friends, family, and coworkers to join and participate.
IN A NUTSHELL: I’m really into modern and contemporary design and love to spot emerging trends. I really "dig" indie designers plus name-brand designers. You could say my style and taste is European-chic with a flair for the eclectic. I’m a marketing professional and style fashionista who has garnered some 25 years in Corporate America; most recently as the marketing manager for a fortune 500 Fujifilm company. When I’m not Squidooing, I’m also trying to be productive as the Marketing Director of a start-up pressroom chemicals company!
JaguarJulie Former Squid Angel
JaguarJulie was a Squid Angel for her first term of six months in 2008 and served again with a heavenly group of Squid Angels on Squidoo. JaguarJulie was a Squid Angel Emeritus of 8.3 months of heavenly and meaningful service as a "quiet" Squid Angel until returning to active duty on March 5, 2012. A belief in angels and an appreciation for their spirituality has guided JaguarJulie in her daily life. It is natural that angels would mean so much -- sharing the love with you today! I AM a Squid Angel Who Retired Her Wings or Her Halo. Thanks to Squidoo for granting my wings those few times. It's JaguarJulie Squid Angel : Blessings to YOU and You Too!
I wrote a lot about spirituality and angels. There were Christmas Angels, Touched by an Angel, The Art of Angels and so many more angels above.
I joined Squidoo on March 21, 2006, so it took me two years to earn my wings!
It’s hard to articulate what all being a Squid Angel really means to me. You see, I’m a very spiritual type of person who honestly believes in angels and guardian angels in particular. I’ve been told that I have two guardian angels, my grandmothers, who are usually with me.
2008 Giant Squid of the Year
Special thanks to all of my supporters who actually voted for me — I sure do appreciate it!
I couldn’t have done it without your support! ;)
I was a member of the Charter Class of Giant Squids 100 Club!
I published well over 850 lenses to my name, have sold a few, and had 6 group lenses. I’ve ‘consulted’ on dozens of lenses for different lensmasters, giving them enhancement tips. Oh, I H-E-A-R-T Squidoo.
Thanks to everyone at Squidoo–you know who you are–and also, thanks to those others who made this possible–God, my family, my tolerant hubby, my coworkers!
P.S. When writing my lenses, I’ve done my best to be “original,” not copying other Squidoo lenses. I’m flattered when I see other lenses popping up that seem rather familiar to my lenses. Thanks all you squidsters!

JaguarJulie Loves Flower Art -- Especially in Art Posters! Only the best for your walls -- pretty flowers. Ah, JaguarJulie loves photographing flowers and loves flowers in art posters for your walls. Whether at the office or at home, here are some of the most beautiful picks in flower art posters!
I loved writing about flowers so much that I opted to create my own FLOWER art! I started with Mexican Petunias and then sunflowers. Next, daisies seemed to take over my gardens.

"Made in" Eastern European Countries
Each of those lenses were jam-packed with interesting items. I have an ancestry that is Eastern European and became quite interested in genealogy a few years ago prior to our vacation to Hungary and Romania. It was that trip that spawned my first "made in" lens of "made in Hungary."
Hungarian Themes
In my food topics, as well as fashion and travel, I wrote a lot about Hungarian themes.
Genealogy-Inspired Topics!
A few surprises ... After my vacation to Hungary and Romania, I felt passionate about taking a closer look at my Eastern European genealogy to learn more about my family's ancestors. In the process, I uncovered some interesting possibilities as to distant relatives!
More Unusual Topics!
What else did I write about? Oh boy! There are a lot of topics when you are talking about over 850 lenses, you know? I did numerous Hey Monkeybrain debates, Eclectic Fashion and Fashion Designers, Kimono and Boho Chic Fashion, Designer Handbags, High End Jewelry, Resin Jewelry, Felt Decor, Food Spices, Health & Medicine, Animals, Art Glass, Artist Profiles, Artsy-Type Topics, Books, and the Holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentines Day, and Easter to name a few!
Thank You Mom!
It was really because of my mom that the Momerisms lens was created. And, how appropriate to celebrate moms today and for Mother's Day! I also did a special lens, Thank You Mom, to thank my mom appropriately.
