I remember my first experience playing in the band program at my elementary school. It was exciting and fun and from that point on I was hooked. I have been playing in different bands ever since, from classical quartets to small jazz groups, funk, blues and big bands.

Olivia realized she was a born musician at the age of four, when her parents found her playing the wedding march on the piano by ear.  Since then, she has developed her natural musical knack with a college degree, years of performance experience in a variety of genres, scoring almost a dozen of films and leading church music at a handful of churches.  When she's not playing music - she enjoys reading, cooking, crafting and biking with her husband.
