| Olivia is a sophomore at Mainland Regional High School. She has passion for the arts, particularly performing and makeup design. She is an active member of her school’s Drama Club, NJDFL team, and New Jersey Thespian Troupe 6657. Her recent stage credits include Mrs. Van Daan in The Diary of Anne Frank (MRHS) and Alexi Darling in Rent (Gateway Playhouse), and this spring she is thrilled to portray Ursula in her school’s production of The Little Mermaid. Olivia has loved makeup from a young age, and her passion for it has grown alongside her as both an artist and performer. She uses makeup as a form of self-expression, believing it plays a vital role in building confidence and shaping character onstage. Her signature look includes light blue eyeshadow, mascara, and most importantly a little bit of sparkle. In her free time, Olivia enjoys experimenting with new makeup products, exploring new artistic mediums, and attending local theater productions. Outside of the arts, she values time spent with her friends and family. Olivia hopes to continue exploring makeup design as part of her future studies in musical theater and design. She is deeply grateful and honored to receive this award and would like to thank her family, friends, and teachers for their continued encouragement and support. |
