Olivia has been on the Board of Directors for the California Nurse-Midwife Foundation since 2021. After completing her master’s degree in Midwifery in 2013 at Philadelphia University, Olivia joined a large, midwifery-led practice in the heart of Los Angeles. After 5 years as a staff midwife, she was promoted in 2019 to co-direct the midwifery practice as Director of the Women’s Health Center which lasted until 2021. At the beginning of 2020 Olivia expanded her personal midwifery practice to include home birth and birth assist work with community midwives all while navigating the obstacles of COVID-19. She is a founding member of an online platform for pre-pregnant, pregnant, and postpartum women called the Health Bump Club and currently works as a staff midwife at Eisner Health. When Olivia’s not working or studying for her doctoral degree at Georgetown, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and performing music.
