INSTRUCTOR

Juliane has been working in the art department of the film & TV business for more than 15 years, so making magic out of nothing comes naturally. When the waste that the Industry produces started driving her batty, she entered Burbank Recycle Center's Waste Warrior Program and never looked back. She volunteers with local sustainability projects, is a TreePeople Community Forester, helped found the Art Directors Guild Green Committee, and just got her California Native Plant Landscaper Certificate. She teaches karate to kids and adults ages 5 and up and runs garden workshops at Roosevelt Elementary. She has survived one son's journey into puberty with lots of laughs and late night chats. Top recommendations from the front lines of her hormone-filled house are cats and "video games" (AKA knitting). Get the info. Find your team. Be the change.
