The University of Delaware's M.A. in Strategic Communication presents our final speaker of the spring semester for our Inside the Industry speaker series. The program is celebrating its 5th year and we are excited to share that many alumni of the program will be joining us on Inside the Industry! Each session features public relations and communications practitioners from a variety of backgrounds, organizations, and areas of expertise.

Join us as we welcome UD Alum, Julia Willmott, an accomplished communications strategist with a passion for supporting internal audiences and enhancing employee experiences. Based in Los Angeles, she is currently VP, HR Communications (Senior Strategist) at City National Bank, where she is focused on building a strong narrative for bank colleagues around their HR journey and cultivating connections through thoughtful, two-way communications.

Before joining City National, she served as Director of Internal Communications at the aviation tech startup Skyryse, where she established strategies and frameworks to help boost transparency and strengthen company culture. She also spent nearly a decade at Riot Games, focusing on everything from developing their internal channel ecosystem to producing the largest employee conference in the company's history. Her early career also included positions with Nickelodeon, Six Flags Entertainment, and Wind-Up Records. With both her bachelor's (2007) and master's degrees (2024) from the University of Delaware and a track record of delivering impactful results, Julia is dedicated to creating cohesive communications that connect and inspire.
