Hi, I’m Olivia
Multi-Passionate Human & Executive Assistant
Things I would tell you about myself if we sat down together for dinner:
I’m the eldest daughter of an eldest daughter of an eldest daughter. I know.
My husband came to the US undocumented as a child; meeting him opened my eyes to the injustice of the American immigration system, and moving (back) to Mexico together only solidified my contempt.
Someday, I hope we get to be parents. Not quite yet because we’re still getting truly settled both in Oaxaca and as a married couple, but I dream about this potential future.
My Personal Values:
No one is perfect, but if any of these statements make you flinch, we’re probably not a good match:
Abolish ICE, support immigrant rights.
Free Palestine, Sudan, and Congo.
Protect LGBTQIA+ communities.
Black Lives Matter.
Indigenous sovereignty; land back.
Equity, inclusion, accessibility, and dignity for all.
History I bring to the table:
A past life as a stage manager and hospitality professional: locked and loaded organizational expertise, preparation for anything, and a great sense of humor if things get off track.
My constant curiosity (and borderline obsession with knowing things): the intense focus needed to ask the right questions, and pull clarity out of scattered thoughts.
My recent experience moving two people and a dog internationally: impeccable research, managing an intense timeline, and a proactive nature—if I don’t know it, I do my best to figure it out.
Thoughts you might have going through my camera roll:
Are these your sisters? They’re beautiful (and tall)

Oh, a cool mural! And another one, and another—
So many screenshots of memes and the weather
You take a lot of photos of bugs, huh?
