"Julia is an exceptional creative. She has the uncommon and prized ability to be both artistic and strategic. I had the gift of mentoring Julia for almost two years and cannot recommend her enough. On set, she is logistically-minded, helping manage talent, supporting the team in staying on schedule and willing to jump in wherever needed in order to ensure a successful shoot. Julia is also a talented writer and passionate storyteller who works hard to practice and hone her craft. I have often called her a human sponge, because she is highly intelligent, an excellent researcher (we named her the Research Ninja) and has superior retention. When she learns new skills, she applies herself with professionalism and thoughtfulness. Julia is a strong communicator and emotionally intelligent, vital traits for working with colleagues and clients alike. She has a positive attitude and is incredibly hard-working. Julia is truly a rising star, and I can’t wait to see the greatness she achieves as she continues to excel in the world of production." - Andrea Palombella, Executive Writer + Producer
What I've Created (A Sampling)
I was Production Assistant on this shoot and then wrote and produced the video in post. This docu-style discussion with the owners of Denizens Brewing Company tells the story of the brand's origins and takes a deep dive into Denizens' values, focus on community, and love for beer. This was part of a campaign comprised of nine other videos, each covering the story behind a specific brew or collection of bottles. I was the writer and producer of all deliverables.
I wrote and produced this sizzle to encapsulate AlterEgo's far-ranging work with unscripted content, including trailers and promos for docudramas, lifestyle shows, and reality series.

I was Production Coordinator on this shoot for Foundation Fighting Blindness, working hand-in-hand with the Production Manager and leading Production Assistants across multiple shoot locations. I greeted clients and talent upon arrival, helped transport them between scenes, facilitated communication between them and the production company, and kept a consistent awareness of their needs throughout the day. I also managed meal logistics for all crew, clients, and talent and worked closely with all roles on set to form a smooth, highly successful production.
