A New Queen Takes the Reign! Julie Cangialosi is named Mrs. DC America 2017. Next Stop, Mrs. America.

WASHINGTON - March 19, 2017 - PRLog -- The Mrs. DC America Pageant was produced by An Officer and Gentlewoman, LLC. The pageant recognizes married women for their personal, professional and community achievements. The sold-out pageant had performances from Zafire Ladies DC and Zafire DC Project. The pageant also paid tribute to Mrs. DC America 2016, Kinosha Soden with a black and white mini-movie directed and produced by Raquel Riley Thomas.

Julie graduated from Russell Sage College in Troy, New York with a degree in Nutrition Science. Immediately following graduation she started her Dietetic Internship at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, Connecticut, where she had her research published as a co-author in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association in 2003. After working as an ICU dietitian Julie used her science background to parlay it into a pharmaceutical sales career, currently working for Novartis Pharmaceuticals. Julie's love for health and fitness inspired her to become a fitness professional instructing Barre and Pilates classes at Vida Fitness in downtown DC.


In 2011, Julie married James Cangialosi, a Special Agent with the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, in a beautiful ceremony at the Mandarin Oriental in Washington, DC. James and Julie are the proud parents of two children, Landon and Elle.
