Julia’s background includes Bachelor degrees in Finance and Art, followed by early careers in investment banking and graphic design. After completing a Master’s degree in Art History at SDSU, she volunteered at the Oceanside Museum of Art (OMA).

Her talent led to being hired to establish a 5th-grade Education Program and later her appointment as OMAs Director of Education. Later, she worked at the Museum of Making Music in Carlsbad, enhancing their educational programs. Seeing the positive impact of arts education in people’s lives, Julia founded Studio ACE, an arts education non-profit in Oceanside dedicated to enriching lives through Arts, Community, and Education.
