About Julia
As the Director of Special Projects at Tulane Hillel, Julia develops and produces The Portrait Identity Project at Tulane and Hillels nationally.
Before her current role, Julia was the Director of Innovation and Student Engagement and a Springboard Innovation Fellow at Tulane Hillel, connecting people and creating inclusive, action-oriented leadership opportunities by coaching students to develop and produce initiatives that actively shape their communities.
She graduated in May 2019 from The Ohio State University with Distinction and Honors in the Arts and a BFA in Photography. In her work, she uses photography and storytelling to evoke empathy, share thought provoking stories, and draw attention to the power of an image to shape our thoughts; thus, encouraging viewers to question their personal identity.
