Kelsea Olivia
East Olivia
A visual storyteller with a passion for genuine connection, Kelsea Olivia, is a NYC-based, California-born, wild-hearted entrepreneur. Motivated by her lifelong dream to create beauty in the world, Kelsea and her women-led creative agency, East Olivia, harness their talents to conceive, design and build one-of-a-kind floral works.
Through ephemeral beauty in blooms, East Olivia fosters an intimate bond between the viewer and their work, creating tangible experiences for their clients. From large-scale installations at the Flatiron Building to defining event aesthetics at Create & Cultivate summits across the country, East Olivia executes impactful works of art and advertising that once viewed are not easily forgotten.
Kelsea’s foundation of empowerment, self-connection and collaborative growth defines the atmosphere of ease and beauty that is evident in all EO creates. You can often find her before sunrise, in the local flower market with her beloved French Bulldog, Henri. There, she will select fresh blooms for a bespoke floral arrangement inspired by someone that has positively influenced her or perhaps for a backyard tablescape enjoyed by friends and family come sunset.
