Olivia Hertel
Senior Social Media Manager
Olivia is a small-town girl, whose main goal has always been to get out of her small town. Her dad is a theater teacher and her mom is a multi-business owner, so it is no wonder she ended up in the creative marketing world. She graduated from the University of North Texas in August, with her degree in Journalism and did freelance creative work before joining our team. Olivia loves cats, binge-watching, reading, makeup, and volleyball, as well as spending quality time with her loved ones.
All about Olivia
Hometown:
Gainesville, TX! But really my family is from the ultra-small town outside of Gainesville, Lindsay, TX (blink and you miss it type)
Enneagram Number:
3
First Job:
Waitressing at my mom’s restaurant: Sarah’s On the Square in Gainesville, where I learned working in the service industry is the quickest way to learn humility.
A big dream you have:
Owning a bookstore with my best friend, Maddie. Specifically with a bookstore cat to roam around and greet visitors.
Interesting Fact:
I have played volleyball for over 10 years and still coach a 14’s select team for the club I played at for around 6 years!
Your Favorite:
Books - Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Normal People, and Catching Fire (the best book in the Hunger Games series, duh.)
Musicians - ABBA, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, and Fleetwood Mac.
TV Show - My comfort show is Parks and Recreation, and I would describe myself as the perfect combination of Leslie Knope and April Ludgate. I also enjoy Game of Thrones, Euphoria, and Succession, as well as a brand new favorite of mine, The White Lotus
Movies - Pride and Prejudice, Palm Springs, and The Florida Project. (ALL are must watches)
