After having some initial screen performance experience in China, Olivia went on to study acting at NIDA, and went to Melbourne University and has shifted her focus to stage acting such as theatre and music concerts. She made her theatrical debut in the musical IDA with UHT in 2018 and has begun exploring physical theatre since 2019. She also undertook a year of music and singing training at a private music school in Melbourne.
As a passionate arts insider she sensed that cross-cultural themed projects lacked real support but worth exploring. Olivia is dedicated to making it a force leading towards arts and cultural exchange and collaboration between Australia and Asia.
