Originally from Minneapolis, Olivia obtained her Bachelor of Arts in Behavioral Neuroscience and Classical Studies from Colgate University in 2017. During her undergraduate career, Olivia worked on several projects studying traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder at the University of Minnesota and Baylor College of Medicine. Upon completion of her undergraduate degree, she joined the Boston University Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy Center, where she worked as the Recruitment and Retention Coordinator for the DIAGNOSE CTE Research Project. Olivia is excited to join the King Lab at GSU as a Ph.D. student in clinical neuropsychology in the Fall of 2020. Her research interests include utilizing multimodal neuroimaging techniques to investigate later-life cognitive, behavioral, and mood outcomes in pediatric brain tumor survivors.

We’re looking forward to having Olivia begin her graduate studies with us this fall!
