ABOUT OLIVIA

Hi! My name's Olivia, I'm 27 years old and I'm currently living in New York City. I graduated from the University of Hawai'i Mānoa with a Masters of Fine Arts in Theater for Young Audiences with a concentration in Puppetry in December 2022. I've always believed that theater has the power to change the world and create a more creative and compassionate generation. I love building and performing with puppets both onstage and in the classroom. I've written puppet performances, including my thesis performance of "Puppets Against Bullying", an interactive classroom performance aimed at helping students in Hawai'i understand different bullying scenarios and how to deal with them. Since Moving to NYC I've had the opportunity to work on several puppetry based projects, including assisting in the re-building of several of the puppets for the Life of Pi US National Tour, and crated my own web series, FELT THAT, coming soon!
