This Bio was written by Julie on her Myspace:

I grew up in a beautiful country home in the midst of the Colombian Rainforest. We had countless animals: Chickens, roosters, turtles, cats, dogs, & my favorite... Porqui Pumba! The sweetest pet pig that ever lived :-) Back then, if I wasn't dancing along to Michael Jackson's Thriller video or practicing Chopin on the keys, I was either giving the animals music lessons (yes, music lessons) or running around outside. My brother & I would explore the green countryside for hours on our bikes, digging up strange rocks and playing hide and seek between the trees; The Andes where our playground. With time however, the senseless war desecrating our country brought the tanks rolling up the mountains, the explosions, and the threats which kept us behind closed doors fearing for our lives. On December 11, 1998 we moved to Colorado chasing an American Dream. Twelve years, three art schools, one EP, and countless gigs later I'm living in LA doing what I've always LOVED!!
