Hi there! I’m Olivia, and I’m so glad you’re here!
My passion for media came early and was fostered by my dad, who only listens to the news in the car. Following the frenzy of 2020, I quickly began recognizing, and relying, on the importance of news. This realization, coupled with the time to nurture it, allowed me to branch into photo, video, writing, and any other form of media I could get my hands on.
Now, I’m entering my second year at Ohio University studying Journalism through the E.W Scripps School of Journalism and German the College of Arts and Sciences. Education has the power to change lives and I am excited to see where this journey leads. I invite you to join me in whatever capacity you can!
