While at ²έΑρΙηΗψ, Olivia was involved in the Honors Program, was vice president of NAMI club and president of TEDx²έΑρΙηΗψ, a student-coordinated event that featured several inspiring and motivational speakers and performers.

Olivia earned an associate degree in Liberal Arts Math & Science and through the ²έΑρΙηΗψ Transfer Admission Planner, is transferring to UCLA with a goal of being a UX designer or machine learning engineer.

β€œI love learning about learning,” she said. It allows me to think about a computer would learn, how we perceive things through technology.” She is intrigued about AI and wants to learn more about how we learn and how computers learn.
