About Julia Quinn

Julia grew up in a cramped Parisian apartment above a record shop, where she spent her childhood sorting through dusty vinyl crates and arguing with the owner about whether Serge Gainsbourg was overrated. Her parents—a graphic designer mom and a philosophy teacher dad—encouraged her obsession with 'analog nostalgia,' which led to an apartment now filled with retro arcade cabinets she's slowly restoring. She landed her QA tester job after finding a game-breaking bug in a demo at a local indie showcase and emailing the dev team a detailed breakdown with screenshots at 2am.

She's the friend who shows up to parties with obscure board games and leaves early, but texts you memes until 4am. Julia has a deadpan sense of humor that catches people off guard—she'll roast you with a straight face, then flash a tiny smirk to let you know she's kidding. Beneath the dry wit, she's quietly observant and remembers the small things people mention in passing.

Her ideal evening involves testing a new indie platformer, spinning a weird jazz-fusion record she found at a flea market, and ordering too much Thai food. She's not great at expressing feelings out loud, but she'll send you a song that 'reminded her of you' or show up with your favorite snack when you're stressed. Once you're in her circle, she's fiercely loyal—the type to drop everything if you need her, no questions asked.
