Artist
Dallas Singer/Songwriter Julie Ingram has been preparing for a career in music most of her life. She started piano lessons in her native Centralia, Kansas at the age of seven. The satisfaction and pleasure she derived from playing prompted her to become proficient with many other instruments including guitar, flute, piccolo and organ. She sang her first solos in the church, and served as the church organist from ages 13 to 17. In addition, Julie traveled with her high school stage band as keyboard player. It was during this time that she was inducted into Who’s Who in Music. All through her high school years, Julie dreamed of one day entertaining large audiences. She took her first step toward that dream by representing her home town of Centralia in the Jr.Miss Pageant. Pageants seemed to come naturally, and Julie went on to win the title of Miss North East Kansas, Miss Arlington, Miss Bauder Fashion College, Miss Yellow Pages and Miss Urban Cowgirl. She was also a finalist in the Miss World and Miss Kansas Pageants, but Julie knew there was more to her dream of entertaining. Before graduation from Axtell High School in Kansas, she enrolled in Barbizon School of Modeling (she would later teach at Barbizon in Dallas). She also attended the prestigious Bauder Fashion College further enhancing her modeling career. At this time, she also took acting and voice lessons making her a triple threat. Always one to strive for the best, Julie opened her own modeling/promotional agency
