Olivia is a midwest-born multifaceted creator, driven by her love of art and science, and inspired by the interactions of the two on a human scale. Olivia brings a rich background in biology, science communications, and community development. She forges her lifelong connection with plants through her personal herbalism practice, tending to her medicinal and edible garden, and playing in the mountains and streams of her hometown in northern Colorado. Olivia is a professional artist and brings exceptional clarity to our Nourish design process.

Oli grew up with a strong appreciation for plants, getting lots of their food from their family garden and easing nerves and sunburns with chamomile and aloe. Their relationship to nature really grew in college, when their walks along the Pittsburgh rivers turned into identifying and learning the history of every plant they saw. After moving to Colorado they spent a year studying herbalism at the Equinox Center of Herbal Studies, which deepened their love for working with plants and medicine making. Oli believes that the better you know a plant the better you can work with it. Oli
