Olivia grew up in southeastern Indiana in a loving, faith-filled Catholic family. As the oldest of five daughters, she developed a heart for service early on through mission work and youth ministry. Her love for sharing Christ deepened through her work as a summer camp counselor and leadership with Boiler Catholic Women.
She is currently studying chemistry education at Purdue University and plans to graduate in fall of 2025. Olivia lives with seven amazing Catholic women who encourage her to grow in her faith daily. Campus ministry has been one of the greatest blessings of her college experience, and she is grateful to give back to the St. Thomas community as an associate campus minister.
In her free time, Olivia enjoys baking, playing cornhole, camping with her family, and spending time in nature. She hopes to visit all the U.S. national parks — and see the Purdue Men’s Basketball team win a national championship!
