As a musical comedian, Julia and her friend/collaborator Joel Waggoner created the viral holiday sensation “Joel & Julia’s Advent Carolndar” (@adventcarolndar on Instagram) where they’ve shared 25 brand new carols every December for three years running.

In reading this bio, you may have noticed that Julia’s two main collaborators are named Noel and Joel. Julia looks forward to this being a hilariously confusing situation for years to come. Julia is represented by Namoff & Co and WME. She is the kind of person who is most likely to say “you too” after a hotel concierge says “enjoy your stay.”
