Olivia’s connection to the land began by herding livestock, shoveling compost piles, and tending to summer gardens at her childhood home in Sacramento. These experiences inspired her to later pursue a degree in landscape architecture from UC Davis. She is passionate about integrating art, ecology, and public outreach to create spaces that support people and the planet. Now a part of the CALAfam, Olivia is excited to apply her creative vision and love of nature to uplift communities through innovative design. In her free time, she can be found sketching in parks and cafes, exploring the American River for the perfect hammocking spot, or enjoying sunset walks with friends.
