Julie Cornelius is passionate about all things mountain biking and travel. In 2015, she was making plans to travel to Nepal when the devastating earthquakes struck. Julie began brainstorming ways to help and the film Moksha was eventually born. The US based nonprofit World Ride was founded as a way to continue to make a difference in the lives of women in Nepal and to help get more women into mountain biking there and beyond. World Ride now works in Nepal, Guatemala, Peru, Lesotho, Botswana, Tanzania and Bhutan giving women social and career opportunities through mountain biking.  

Julie is a 20 year veteran of the bike industry and lives in Moab, UT, US. She is also a certified mountain bike skills coach, guide and nutritionist. She loves to connect with others around the globe and wants to make mountain biking accessible to women everywhere.
