Justice Oliva | Office Administrator
Justice Oliva is our Office Administrator, and she’s really excited to have found a workplace that feels like home after making the switch from the corporate world. She’s the friendly face you can count on to keep everything organized, running smoothly, and to help everyone have what they need to do their best work. When she’s not at work, Justice enjoys cozying up with a good book, tending to her plants, watching sitcoms and reality TV, and spending quality time with her two kids and her boyfriend.
