Olivia grew up in Christchurch and studied at Massey University, gaining her degree in Commerce and subsequently her postgraduate qualification in Health and Safety relations. Having worked in Health and Safety since then, she prioritises one thing above all else: all workers being able to come home from work healthy and safe.
Never one to be bored, in her spare time Olivia plays football for the UC Football team, and volunteers on their committee as their vice president.
