about

Jules Barrueco is an attorney at a Fortune 100 company in New York City, and writes about her experiences—as a woman, a lawyer, a wife, and a mother—while she lives them. For years she has connected with women through personal essays and cultural commentary for places like the New York Observer (including the Family Jules column), Cosmo, InStyle, Glamour, The Satirist, and more. Jules is not the writer who jokes about how she should have gone to law school—she’s the writer who did, and she’s better off for it.

Jules lives in Manhattan and Connecticut with her husband and five-year-old son. She is a woman who supports women, and believes in using her voice to be the change she wants to see. Sometimes that means advocating for women and their worth in the workplace. Sometimes it means advocating for women and their worth in her own home. And sometimes it means putting it all down on the page to find her way through a problem, then connecting with countless other women who are navigating similar struggles.

Jules is currently working on her first book.
