#ispeakSpanish Meetup
Olivia gets together with a Meetup group to practice speaking Spanish among other native speakers. It's a welcoming community to share stories of members' varying backgrounds in a social environment while speaking a foreign language. She's even learned how to dance the Bachata!

Dallas Sport and Social Sand Volleyball
She's no Kerri Walsh Jennings, but Olivia loves friendly competition, sand between her toes and a good spike (when it happens). Playing sand volleyball in Dallas, she's gained valuable leadership and team building skills and made lifelong friends, not to mention, burned countless calories. Heck yeah for that!

Big Brothers Big Sisters
Olivia mentored a young girl every week for nearly two years as my Little Sister, offering her life experiences that she couldn't normally gain in her every day life. They ventured to the movies, the mall, the zoo, carved pumpkins, read books and even met a few Dallas Stars players!
