Olivia Lane
Olivia, co-founder of SuperVegan, is a proud survivor of the CUNY Hunter College experience, where she earned a liberal arts degree. Olivia enjoys nerding out about green cleaning, daydreaming, eating, making art, and dancing in grocery stores. She is also a lover of squirrels. Olivia lives in Providence, RI with her boyfriend Richard and a cat called Lucy.
Olivia became vegan in 2002 after reading Why Vegan and believes that getting information and a good, simple homemade vegan meal to the entire world is the path to animal liberation.
