Meet Olivia

I have a unique story – my 240 skydives were all done prenatally in my mom’s tummy. She was jumping out of airplanes with me until she was six months pregnant, so you could say that skydiving is in my blood. My mom, Alex, and my dad, Bo, are the owners here at WSC, and most of the staff here are like family to me. I remember running around the airport as a little kid, riding scooters up and down the taxiway with my siblings, and spending endless hours doing sidewalk chalk on the concrete in front of the hangar. For me, WSC is a second home, somewhere where everyone knows and accepts each other for who they are. I’ve been spending weekends here for my entire life, watching customers walk out to the plane with terrified looks on their faces and land 30 minutes later, ecstatic.

About three years ago, I started working at Wisconsin Skydiving Center as part of the manifest team. I love getting to connect with each individual and learn a little about their stories. Getting to witness people having this unforgettable experience has always been my favorite part of my job, and it makes me incredibly excited to go to work each day, knowing that I am part of a community that makes this possible.
