Julia D’Ippolito

Julia is a proud alumna of the Tucson Waldorf School. She grew up in Tucson, Arizona, and spent many summers in Italy visiting her father’s side of the family, where days unfolded among their olive orchards and vineyards. These experiences inspired a deep reverence for the land, a love for simple, nourishing food, and an early appreciation for holistic health and well-being, threads that naturally wove their way into her life’s work.

Julia is a certified holistic nutrition consultant and worked in the holistic health space for over eight years. As a health coach, she supported individuals of all ages and walks of life in reaching their health goals through nutrition education, cooking classes, community outreach events, and offering nutritional coaching sessions.

With a deepening appreciation for the powerful role of nervous system regulation in human health and learning, she is especially grateful to return to Tucson Waldorf School. In an environment where such awareness is cultivated, ultimately supporting her too as she pursues a degree in psychology with an emphasis on public health at the University of Arizona, where her passion for empowering others through health education continues to grow.

When she is not at school, Julia can often be found tending her garden, cooking nourishing meals, cycling, practicing yoga, or hiking with her husband, Ty, and their beloved dog, Malta. She delights in exploring new places and finds joy in noticing the beauty the world has to offer.
