Top SchoolJulie Lerman is an independent software consultant and coach with over 30 years of hands-on experience building systems and guiding development teams, currently running The Data Farm from Burlington, Vermont. A former Microsoft Regional Director and long-time Microsoft MVP, she’s internationally recognized for expertise in Domain-Driven Design, .NET, and Entity Framework Core, and has authored four O’Reilly books and numerous Pluralsight courses. Julie combines practical coding, code review, and workshop facilitation (including Event Storming) to help teams translate complex business domains into maintainable software. Her work spans engagements with both global enterprises and small businesses, where she emphasizes deep domain learning as the path to better design. As a Docker Captain and prolific educator, she brings a rare mix of technical depth, teaching skill, and consulting pragmatism. An often-overlooked strength is her sustained impact through training and writing—shaping developer practices as much as individual projects.
