When Julie Smolyansky took over as CEO of Lifeway Foods in 2002, she was the youngest female CEO of a publicly traded company at the age of 27. Her refugee parents founded the company over 30 years ago with the goal of bringing Kefir, an Eastern European product, into the mainstream of the United States.
Under her leadership, the company's revenue has increased to more than $100 million today, up from $12 million when she took over. Julie has worked to end domestic violence and sexual assault for nearly 30 years, creating and teaching the first teen dating violence curriculum in Chicagoland with the YWCA while still in high school.
