Hi there, I’m Olivia, or Liv as friends and family call me. I was born and raised in New York, first on the outskirts of the Upper East Side in all its refined metropolitan glamour (that my family, living in a cramped one room apartment in a walk-up, was distinctly not part of) and now in East Harlem, a beautiful, complex center of culture; highly feared but should be revered.
The only way to describe myself fully is as an appreciator of the human experience; reading about it, watching it, hearing it, feeling it and discussing it. I don’t love all of human nature, but love humanity, meaning I love to learn about culture and history, as well as social disorder. One day I hope I will either contribute to further enriching it through the arts, or helping to save it through social activism or political reform.
For right now, though, I just enjoy music, theater, musical theater (hah) and writing. As you might be able to tell I am undecided, but I’m looking to Social Work, Anthropology, Communications, etc-as well as the arts.
