About me!

The name’s Oliver, Ollie for short, and I’m a 25 year old Non-binary Georgian. One of 8 children; born in Georgia and moved as many times as years they are old. Oliver’s skills range from podcast hosting, to music and lyrics, to watercolor, to much much more.

I’ve held many jobs from wait-staff in a small-town southern restaurant, to roof-salesperson in colorado, to admin for Amish furniture sales. I let so many folks decide what I was capable of and what I wanted, I finally was able to discover myself and that all I desperately want is to make music, to make art.

I was also recently diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder, which covers several things. However, the bits I struggle with are functional seizures, and movement and motion related disorder (things like jumps/jolts/and tics). The way I found out about this was that I had another functional seizure and experienced the inability to use my legs to walk. All that I knew at the time was how excruciatingly painful it was every time I tried to stand or walk. I’m now using the assistance of some mobility aids in order to regain my strength and brain-muscle connection.
