For my ASL classes: I am a hearing teacher, who has been learning and teaching ASL for 20 years. I love the language, and I want to support the Deaf community by teaching hearing students how to best communicate with deaf and hard of hearing folks. I even co-created an ASL textbook with one of my deaf ASL teachers. I love to teach, have a pretty good sense of humor, and I enjoy creating a nurturing environment for learning.

For my acting classes: I have been a professional actor for 25 years, starting in theater and then moving to television (I have some self-produced short films as well).  You can view my credits at IMDB.

My expertise is in audition technique: coaching the actor to make solid and discerning choices (every actor brings something unique to the table, and that's what we focus on!), interpreting an audition scene(s), "seeing" the scene so that you can put yourself into the puzzle that is the script, and knowing what will make your audition stand out.

The pandemic really changed how auditions are done for TV and Film. Casting offices are turning to self-tapes as their means of seeing actor auditions.  These classes will cover three categories of self-tape auditions: the equipment, the space (location in your home), and the technique.

This class will teach you the techniques needed for self-taping, including: making good character decisions, understanding the subtleties of being on-camera, how to connect with your audience using the lens, how to make your self-tape stand out (without looking desperate!), and other tips & tricks for delivering the best self-tape audition. (It is recommended that you have taken the self-taping "equipment" and "location" classes first, or that you have some experience with self-taping.)

Julia makes learning fun with games that work a different part of my brain and I remember signs I forgot learning.
Her personality undergirds everything !!! She is easy to learn from.

Julia is a great teacher and you will learn so much from her! She explains the signs and has great knowledge of American Sign Language. She is also very kind and funny which helps make learning this language fun and easy!
