Meet Julia: A Committed Community Advocate for Pacific Palisades


For 21 years, Julia has proudly called Pacific Palisades her home. She spent her first 12 years in ​the Highlands and the last 9 years in Marquez Knolls, Area 3, where she now seeks to represent ​her neighbors at the Pacific Palisades Community Council (PPCC).


Julia’s professional background is as diverse as it is impressive. She is an attorney, a certified ​divorce coach, a seasoned business entrepreneur, and the founder of the Butterfly Foundation, a ​non-profit committed to making a difference. Her commitment to the community is evident not ​only in her professional work but also in her personal life.


As a mother of four children who attended Pacific Palisades public schools, Julia has been ​deeply involved in the local education system. From active participation in the PTA to ​spearheading fundraising efforts for local schools and camps, she has consistently worked to ​enhance the educational experiences of children in the area. Her involvement extends beyond ​the classroom, with her children actively participating in programs at the Palisades Recreation ​Center, further deepening her connection to the community.

Julia’s leadership experience is also reflected in her service on the board of a Beverly Hills ​homeowners association and a non-profit board for The Special Needs Resource Center. These ​roles have honed her skills in governance, collaboration, and community service.


Julia views her candidacy as an opportunity to give back to the community her family has ​cherished for over two decades. With her extensive experience, deep-rooted connections, and a ​strong desire to serve, she is ready to represent and advocate for the residents of Pacific ​Palisades at the PPCC.
