Julie Dixon Joins "All Things Parking with Dani and John" to Discuss Enforcement, Innovation & Leadership

Julie had the honor of joining Dani Crain and John D. Conway on their podcast, "All Things Parking with Dani and John," to discuss her 35-year career in municipal parking management. She shared her journey from writing tickets on a bike in Isla Vista to leading transformative programs like SFpark in San Francisco.

The conversation explored Julie's core philosophy that enforcement should focus on compliance and education rather than punishment, her groundbreaking PhD research developing staffing formulas for municipal enforcement agencies, and the realities of building a debt-free national consultancy as a woman in a male-dominated industry. Julie also reflected on navigating criticism and sexism with integrity, and shared the most valuable lesson from her decades of experience: the importance of listening before reacting.
