A former water polo player, Julia once worked in strength and conditioning, coaching athletes in the weight room. There, she experienced — quite literally — the power of speech to move people to action. Now, she is excited to put her skills to work at West Wing Writers.
Julia is a 2009 graduate of Harvard University, where she majored in social anthropology and government, pursuing research interests in areas ranging from education policy to media-military relations. She spent a summer as a legal researcher at the Irish Centre for Human Rights in Galway, focusing on refugee protection and policing practices. In addition, she volunteered with Habitat for Humanity and Strong Women Strong Girls, an after-school mentoring program.
A newcomer to Washington, Julia is originally from San Jose, California. Her writing has appeared in the San Jose Mercury News, the Harvard Crimson, Tuesday magazine, and SwimmingWorldMagazine.com. |
