Julian is now living in Somerville, Massachusetts. He is attending the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University. He is a first year student in the Master of Architecture I program. Julian is working with other students on a design-build project to INSERT a temporary library in an empty retail space in Chinatown in Boston in the Fall.

Julian grew up in the East Village in New York City. He went to the Bronx High School of Science and graduated in 2001. He attended Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, where he majored in Studio Arts with a concentration in Architecture. In the spring of his junior year he studied abroad in Bologna, Italy. Julian graduated from Wesleyan in 2005 with a BA in Art Studio. He worked in Hamburg, Germany for 3 months during the summer after school and spent more than a month traveling through Italy, Germany, Norway and the Czech Republic. In the fall he moved back home. He lived in Manhattan for the next two years until the fall of 2007. Julian split his time between construction and building furniture. He joined a small crew headed up by his friend Ben Schneider, which turned a gutted space in Red Hook, Brooklyn into The Good Fork Restaurant, which Ben owns and operates with his wife Sohui Kim. He also worked under the close tutelage of Evan Hughes at his woodshop in the Brooklyn Navy Yards, Evan Hughes Studio. In the summer of 2007, Julian worked as a carpenter with his friend Peter Wagner on Open Plans' Astor Playa for the Burning Man festival in Nevada. He moved to Clinton Hill, Brooklyn that fall and spent time putting together his portfolio and applying to graduate school. Julian is now 25 and enrolled at Harvard University's Graduate School of Design in their Master of Architecture I program.
