RESUME
JULIA G. RIBAS
Height: 5'8 | Eye Color: Brown | Hair Color: Dark Brown
I am a theatre creator and performer based in Los Angeles who aspires to generate positive change in the entertainment industry. As a student who values artistic collaboration and a strong sense of community, I am looking for a company that embraces diversity, equity, and teamwork. I have always been drawn to theatre, film, and television, because these art forms have the ability to educate audiences and evoke empathy. My leadership skills, compassion, and sense of humor contribute to creating positive environments that support the process and product. With my experience in performing, directing, stage management, theatre education, and administrative positions, I aim to continue to create safe and inviting spaces for my peers.
