About Olivia K.

As a licensed architect and LEED professional, I believe great design is about more than just buildings—it’s about the synergy between people, purpose, and place.Currently, I serve as a Co-Studio Director in Los Angeles, where I balance the mechanics of studio operations with a passion for Business Development. My journey has taken me through a diverse landscape of architecture, from the fast-paced world of temporary overlay and world-class sports arenas to the complex ecosystems of innovation districts and mixed-use developments.In my role as the Southwest Regional Practice Area Leader for OB Developers, I focus on bridging the gap between traditional real estate cornerstones—office, retail, and multifamily—and the evolving frontiers of Entertainment, Sports, and Hospitality. I thrive on the challenge of connecting the dots: aligning talent with local opportunities to deliver award-winning work that resonates.Whether I’m acting as a Client Relationship Leader for global clients or navigating the exciting possibilities of major event venues, my goal remains the same: to foster authentic collaborations that turn ambitious visions into meaningful reality. I am honored to lead such a talented team and am constantly inspired by the impact we can make on the skyline and the community together.
