After moving out of the country at age 10, she discovered writing as a new past time. What was once short stories, soon became short poems and eventually she ventured into the world of slam poetry. Olivia has been a part of the Albuquerque Youth Slam team for the past two years and was featured on HBO’s Brave New Voices in October of 2010. In the future, Olivia hopes to move to a larger city and will publish a book by 2015.”
