Production
Leadership

Setting creative direction and owning the full production function — from resourcing and scheduling to quality standards and stakeholder alignment. Built for organizations that need a senior leader who can both define the vision and make it real.

& Storyteller

Sometimes the most valuable perspective comes from the outside. Julia embeds with internal teams to cut through the noise, identify what truly matters, and shape the work with precision — fewer rounds of approvals, less wasted effort, and resources directed exactly where they count.

Cross-Functional
Alignment

The gap between what engineers build and what audiences understand is where most stories get lost. Julia speaks both languages — translating technical depth into narratives that resonate, and creative vision into direction that ships.

How I lead

It's not just about the idea — it's about strategic approach,
the right talent, and flawless execution.

What sets great creative work apart isn't the concept alone — it's assembling the right people around it. I bring together the best talent in the industry and build a fully customized process and workflow around each project, ensuring the right outcome every time. Whether it's a large-scale experiential event, a high-end production, or human-centered storytelling, the approach is always intentional and the execution is never left to chance.

01
Understand the Assignment
Focused, pointed meetings to clearly define the goals of the production — what are the target KPIs, and what feeling do you want your audience to walk away with?
02
Set creative direction
Establish standards, voice, and a shared creative vision — the foundation everything else is built on.
03
Build the Team
Assemble the right talent, establish the timeline, and set clear deliverables so everyone knows what success looks like from day one.
04
Execute with Precision
Work closely alongside the team to ensure everything is running smoothly — on point, on target, and on budget.
