Julie Tyler began her acting career in NYC while enjoying a successful modeling career. She enrolled at the Marjorie Ballentine Studio where she discovered that "it was okay to be me." Julie spent the following three years studying a curriculum that would make any theatre student jazzed. Classes which approached the body as an instrument, combining breath, voice, yoga, Alexander Technique, Shakespeare, dance, sound, technique for imagination, script interpretation, classical reading, observation, improvisation, sketch development, and many other performance study devices. After completing acting school, Julie joined the Brave New Theatre Company and starred in, "The Problem" and "Lou Gehrig Did Not Die of Cancer." Other NYC theatre credits include Shakespeare's Lady Anne, Portia and Joan of Arc. She has appeared in a hand full of graduate school film projects and what would any career be without some extra work in feature films such as "Money Train," which was filmed in NYC and starred Woody Harrelson and Keifer Sutherland and in "Music of the Heart" starring Merrill Streep, also filmed in the Big Apple. Julie considers having worked on HBO's "Sex And The City" a highlight of her early NY days. Julie moved to LA in 2000 and continued pursuing roles in television and film, while selling internet marketing, cosmetics and jewelry. Never one to stop studying, Julie completed a year and half program at Bang Imrov and became a certified yoga instructor. She has done sketch comedy shows and film sketches in LA and continued to write and develop her own material. She enjoyed working as a Production Coordinator on the television pilot "Heartbroken," written, directed and produced by the very talented, long-time character actor David Landsberg who has "squeezed Charmin with Mr. Whipple" and was Executive Producer of "The Cosby Show." While taking acting workshops auditioning, Julie also honed her professional sales experience and has been recruited many times to be a rep and spokesperson called ForRealty.net (a real estate marketing company), Jimmyjane (a luxury accessories company), and for Toyota during the national auto show season. In 2003, Julie decided she missed the seasons and the truth and moved back to the Big Apple. There she worked in sales and marketing for an IT company, contributing multi-media to their website which managed famous office buildings such as the Seagram's building and Lever House, both on Park Avenue. During this time, she was invited to join Terrapin Troupe Theatre Company where she starred in the original play, "Counting Change" and De Donde by Mary Gallagher. She continued to keep her finger on LA's pulse, flying out to do workshops with TVI Studio and checking the damage done by her sublessors. Then in 2005, Julie relocated once more to LA and moved in to a much larger apartment, which allowed her to cultivate her decorating skills. Since then, she has done original short plays with Little Bird Theater Company, a short film directed by Dep Kirkland and some spec commercials. She also married her dream guy, Matt Troyer and gained a wonderful second family from Michigan. In 2009 Julie began working on her first documentary to be produced by her production company, Golden Goose Films. When she is not traveling as a spokes model for Toyota, Julie enjoys doing triathlons, reading physics, and arguing with the City of LA over parking tickets and false alarms.
