Julie Holmes
Virginia Tire & Auto
It’s safe to say that Virginia Tire & Auto is in Julie’s blood. Growing up, she doesn’t remember a family dinner where the business wasn’t mentioned. A graduate of both Washington & Lee University’s business program and Villanova University’s Law School, Julie helps run and manage Virginia Tire & Auto, spearheading our marketing efforts. Before joining Virginia Tire & Auto, Julie clerked for Hon. H. Emory Widener, Jr. on the U.S. Court of Appeals and was also an associate in the corporate and real estate departments at Covington & Burling LLP. She enjoys spending her free time with her four daughters and son.

Summit Beneficiaries
SPARC provides essential day programs for adults with disabilities at five locations in Northern Virginia.
SPARC offers the same supportive structure and continued education that its participants enjoyed in school and provides a variety of educational services in the form of leisure learning that allows participants to work on life skills while socializing with a community of peers.
The SPARC day is filled with activities that presume competence and appeal to each individual’s interests. We set the stage for learning skills and habits that improve life for our club participants and their families.
