Hi there! I'm Olivia, a second-year Commerce student at UBC Sauder. Originally from Atlanta, GA in the United States, I currently study and reside in Vancouver. Travelling across the continent, I brought with me my commitment to gratitude. Out of appreciation for my teachers and mentors, and the resources I have access to, I work hard to learn and grow so I can make meaningful contributions to my community as a student, employee, and volunteer. Out of appreciation for my family and friends, and the life of love they have given me, I aim to reflect kindness and joy to the people around me and make the most of every day to live a life with no regrets.Whether it be through my dedication to service or my hobbies (golfing, hiking, photography, travelling, and more), I live my life with an attitude of gratitude, recognizing the blessings of my life and striving to use them to make an impact on the people around me.“It is not joy that makes us grateful, it is gratitude that makes us joyful.” -David Steindl Rast
