Hello,

I'm Olivia, a freelance arts & culture writer, editor, and independent producer based in Brooklyn, New York.

I’m drawn to multimedia projects rooted in curiosity and connectivity.

In my writing life, I frequently explore and converse with the lesser known, the independent, the below-the-radar, the underappreciated, and the (re)emerging — across multiple forms, eras, and practices.

You can find my published work spanning the worlds of film, art, magazines & books, style, & culture in Dazed, Dirt, i-D, AnOther, Vanity Fair, Cake Zine, The Wine Zine, W, Lindsay, Vestoj, and The Vinyl Factory, among other places.

I also organize alongside fellow media workers to improve labor conditions across the industry with the Freelance Solidarity Project, the National Writers Union’s digital media division.

In March 2017, I co-founded Constellation, a digital platform that celebrates emerging and established creatives of marginalized genders across the globe, alongside filmmaker Jaclyn Bethany and designer/producer Suze Myers.

In May 2015, I graduated from Barnard College, Columbia University where I studied English Literature and Dance.
