When she isn't doing Boss Lady stuff with The Idle Class, you can find Julia Trupp soaking up the arts around Northwest Arkansas, trying out different local coffee shops, doing improv comedy, or indulging in her favorite meal of the day, brunch. Julia graduated from the University of Arkansas with a bachelor's degree in English and journalism and has been telling stories her whole life.
