Juliana was raised in Connecticut, where she first began her preliminary ballet training at The Hartt School, under former director Samantha Dunster and later Carol Roderick. In 2018, Juliana furthered her training by joining the Nutmeg Ballet Conservatory under the direction of Victoria Mazzarelli.
Juliana then moved to Sarasota, Florida in 2021 to join The Sarasota Ballet’s Trainee program under the direction of Christopher Hird and Dierdre Miles Burger. Here Juliana had the opportunity to work within the school while also getting to learn select company repertoire.
Most recently Juliana trained in the Professional Division at Nashville Ballet, under the direction and coaching of Anaïs Chalendard. Here, Juliana was also able to expand her contemporary training under the teaching of Maria Konrad.
She is now excitedly looking forward to the year ahead in Ballet Arizona’s Studio Company!
When she is not dancing Juliana loves spending time with her cat Cannoli, listening to classical music, and getting outside with friends!
