During high school, Olivia took a certified nursing assistant course, which opened her eyes to the world of healthcare and the impact nurses can have on patient care. Throughout her years as a labor and delivery nurse, she always cherished the moments of encouraging, educating, and celebrating with patients and their families in life’s most special moments.

Understanding the uniqueness of each patient, she tailors their care plans accordingly. Olivia’s philosophy is clear: “I aim to create an environment where patients feel safe and heard. Shared decision-making between the patient and provider is crucial in healthcare. I want patients to feel validated, educated, and empowered to make healthcare decisions that align with their goals.”

Olivia is originally from the Capital Region and wanted to provide care to the community where she grew up. Outside of working as a nurse practitioner, she is passionate about nursing education and teaches at a local nursing school.
