Julia began dancing when she was three years old. Now in her eleventh year of dancing this will be her fifth year at Extensions and her first on the Teen company. She’s also an eighth grader at Old St. Mary’s, and in the rare instance she’s not at the studio, Julia enjoys cooking, reading, and sleeping.

This summer Julia prepared for the upcoming year by attending the Extensions Intensive, Boston Ballet Summer Dance Program, and the Giordano Dance Teen Intensive. Julia feels as if Extensions is her second home, and she is grateful to be an Extensionite and part of the family. She also appreciates the amazing dance (and life) training that Extensions offers with opportunities to learn from some of the best dancers, choreographers and humans like Hillary Aarons, Tom Mattingly, Garth Johnson, Tatyana Mazur, Katie McCann, Taylor Mitchell, and Brian Rabenda. She especially thanks Lizzie MacKenzie for believing in her, pushing her, and creating so many wonderful opportunities.
