Júlia Isabelle Bergmann (born February 21, 2001) is a German-Brazilian volleyball player who plays as an outside hitter for the Brazil women's national volleyball team and collegiately for Georgia Tech.

Early life
Júlia Isabelle Bergmann was born and raised in Munich, Germany to a Brazilian mother and German father. She and her family moved to Brusque, Brazil in 2011 when she was in the fourth grade. She has said her parents decided to move the family to Brazil so her and her brother could experience another country with a different culture, learn the language, and learn how to adapt with different people. She is fluent in German, Portuguese, and English, and speaks some French and Spanish.

She attended high school at Amplo High School in Brusque, Brazil. Both of her parents played volleyball, so she began taking up the sport in fifth grade. After just two years of playing volleyball, she began representing her city in high level tournaments. Bergmann opted to attend college at Georgia Tech, something she knew she wanted to do from a young age in order to play volleyball and study physics.

Career

Bergmann joined the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets volleyball team in 2019. As a freshman, she led the team in kills and was named Atlantic Coast Conference Freshman of the Year.
