Julia brings her experience as a professional singer, songwriter, actor, director, singing and vocal coach to her audiobook narration. A member of SAG/AFTRA and AEA, she has done TV, commercials, and has performed in and directed countless theater productions throughout LA. She received an NAACP nomination for Best Director of a Musical at the Malibu Playhouse where she also ran her own children’s theater company, directing over 20 major productions. Julia has run her own busy vocal studio in Malibu for the last 20 years. She has a BA in music which has led her from classical to jazz to cabaret to country blues. She loves telling stories through song and is an in-demand performance coach. Her music can be found on all the streaming platforms. Julia’s rich, resonant and expressive voice captivates listeners and endears them to her and her versatility as a singer and “vocology geekiness” enables her to create a full vocal range of character voices across genres.
Julia is very active in her community, serving on the board of Malibu Playhouse for 9 years and, currently, as a Malibu City Arts Commissioner. She is also an active environmentalist and created the Eco Hero Kids, a foundation based on music and theater. Raising herself and then her children, she has worked at many different jobs including as a dancer in a troupe called “The Dangerous Curves,” a singer with a 15 piece swing band, a legal secretary, the world’s worst food waitress (although she wasn’t too bad with cocktails), taking photos on a cruise ship, a theater director, a studio singer, a teacher and a mentor and finally as a caregiver to her dying mother. Julia was born & raised in NM, but now lives on the edge of the Pacific Ocean with her dog, cat and tortoise. She runs a B&B & loves creating & cooking interesting meals with very little food in the house. Julia is Christian and an avid traveler – visiting many developing countries. A salsa dancer, gardener & event thrower!
