Bio
Julia is the Co-Founder of Ready Set Productions, a full service video production company that focuses on producing and sharing stories that matter. Throughout her career as a seasoned journalist, she has interviewed high profile individuals such as His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Civil Rights revolutionary, Reverend James Lawson, Co-founder of the Malala Fund, Shiza Shahid, Google's 'Jolly Good Fellow,' Chade-Meng Tan, along with other notables. She was recently recognized by Folio Magazine as one of the 2018 Top Women in Media.
Julia is especially passionate about being a voice for young females in media, and creating more opportunities for women behind-the-scenes, in a typically male-dominated field. In January 2017, Ready Set Productions launched a digital series called Modern Hero, in which Julia interviews and shares the stories of women who are trailblazing in their careers and making a difference in the world. The intent of the show is to highlight how role models come from all walks of life. Since launching, the series has been viewed over 30 million times and has won a variety of awards.
Julia has also spearheaded esteemed productions at venues such as the United Nations and the National Constitution Center. Prior to launching Ready Set Productions, Julia worked on top rated shows on ABC’s Live Well Network, as well as live productions such as Miss America, the 6ABC Thanksgiving Parade, and the Liberty Medal.
