Biography

David, Holly, and I

My name is Julia Zehner. I am almost 21 and studying to major in graphic design with a minor in photography. Currently, I am in my junior year here at IU South Bend. I have been with my fiancé David for almost 2 ½ years and on July 21, 2016, he asked me to marry him. He is in the Indiana National Guard and has been since we started dating. This self-portrait expresses who I am because it was taken with my dog, Holly, when we arrived at our vacation destination over the summer where David proposed. I love Holly more than anything and she knows just how to easily cheer me up no matter what my mood is.

            I enjoy spending my free time coloring adult coloring books for relaxation along with tubing, and camping. Over the past two years, I have started my own photography business. A lot of my free time is spent photographing and editing photos for my business. I listen to a wide range of music, but I normally choose country or pop. I also occasionally have a mood where I am interested in rap music.

My favorite movies are Nicholas Sparks movies, Deadpool, and other comedies. If I could make any media, I would love to create reality TV shows along with comedy and action movies. I am interested in making media because it will help broaden my abilities and give me a well-rounded portfolio. One major goal for after I graduate is to have a job lined up to start right after I graduate so that I don’t have to worry about being unemployed for a long period of time after graduation.
