about Olivia & the Studio

Hi, I'm Olivia.

I'm an experience designer, facilitator, and the founder of The Design for Feelings Studio. Previous to studio life, I was a long time IDEO’er and Stanford d.school’er. 

I create spaces for people to find the strange-beautiful parts of themselves that have been left behind, to imagine and move differently, and to meet one another in new ways — all through immersive workshops, interactive events, and multi-sensory experiences.

My work blends story, behavioral psychology, architecture, learning, and play to design interactions and experiences that change us

I love helping people make whatever they’re making more memorable, more meaningful, more beautiful, and more chaotically and curiously weird. 

The robots may be here, but that means we need wild-wild-humaning more than ever. 

want to collab?

Interested in bringing one of these workshops to your conference, convening, or community?
