MEET THE FOUNDER.

I’m a Louisiana girl now based in Nashville, Tennessee, and the founder of The Olive Press Co.

I’ve followed Jesus for as long as I can remember, and much of my life has been shaped by a desire to know Him deeply and make Him known. I began leading worship at 16, and over the years that calling has grown through worship, writing, creativity, and meaningful connection with others.

The Olive Press was born from some of the more refining seasons of my own story — seasons of waiting, loss, rebuilding, and learning to trust God when I couldn’t yet see what He was doing.

Writing became a way for me to process those seasons and recognize the beauty He was producing through them.

That became the heartbeat behind this brand:

The pressing is never without purpose.

Today, The Olive Press exists to create faith-inspired pieces and stories that remind people of truth, hope, identity, and the faithfulness of God in every season of becoming.

When I’m not creating, you’ll probably find me around Nashville with a coffee in hand, playing volleyball, reading, planning a spontaneous trip, or making a late-night Waffle House run.

I’m so glad you’re here.
