Julia has extensive experience of working in higher education, and has previously worked at University of Glamorgan, University of Wales Newport, Roehampton University and University of Gloucestershire.

Julia has extensive publishing experience, including book and exhibition reviews, journal articles, book chapters and editing books; she has also undertaken extensive peer review work. Julia is co-editor of the academic journal Photographies.

Her research typically analyses the photographic representations of climate change and environmental disaster through the lenses of political ecology, geopolitics and ontology. Julia's practice work focuses on landscape photography, ecological diversity and non-extractive methodologies. Julia has published and exhibited her work and is currently interested in the book form.

Julia's current research focuses on the relationship between humanitarian photography, climate and environmental justice, and concerns for the living and non-living world. Of particular interest here is the import and function of the 'real' in relation to climate justice and how this can also be mobilised for the non-human world.
