Post-Baccalaureate Research Assistant

Olivia graduated from University of Richmond in the spring of 2019 with a BS in Environmental Studies and a Minor in Visual Media Art Practices. She has been working to help create a timeline of when fall foliage has occurred in Acadia National Park to understand how change in temperature and precipitation has been impacting park visitorship and the economy of the surrounding towns. When she's not in the Spatial Analysis Lab, she enjoys hiking with her family, painting watercolor landscapes, and going on runs around the city.
