Julia is an artist, craftsperson, and educator born in Hawai’i. In 2010, she found a lifelong passion for glass art and has since worked all over the globe pursuing her passion. Her studies in Glass Art include figural sculpting at the Salem Community College; in 2018 she took a workshop with David Fuin in Morano, Italy and since 2014 has been an assistant teacher and technician seasonally at the Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, WA.

Her love of nature, science, and design has inspired her work; whether it’s a study of the optics of glass or re-evaluating form and function. Since 2013, Julia has worked as a production glassmaker on Maui, honing her skills with the material and exploring her passion for design.
