Scientist • Photographer • Author and Speaker 

Welcome! I’m Dr. Julia Tschirka – scientist by training, creative thinker by evolution. My work bridges the precision of the lab with the depth of human experience. As a photographer, author, and speaker, I explore how self-reflection, motivation, love, and conscious decision-making shape our lives.

Scientist with a Research Backbone
My academic path began in the natural sciences, with a PhD in biochemistry and hands-on basic research in cellular systems. While my lab work focused on molecular processes, my journey through science awakened deeper questions in me – about self-motivation, flow, curiosity, discipline, and career decisions. These personal reflections became the quiet undercurrent of my professional development.

Photographer of Inner Realities
As a visual storyteller, I capture what lies beneath the surface—moments of stillness, strength, and self-awareness. My photographs are portraits of inner truth, created to mirror the emotional and mental states we often can’t express in words.

Author & Speaker on Human Experience
I write and speak about the things we all wrestle with: self-realization, clarity, relationships, love, and the everyday choices that define our direction. My personal passion is to inspire and motivate people to find and to live their passion. Grounded in both structured thinking and lived insight, my work invites others to pause, reflect, and realign with what truly matters to them.
