Olivia Aylmer

I joined the small-yet-mighty AIR team part-time in January 2021 as Development Associate. In this new role, I'm focusing my time and energy on telling AIR’s evolving story and amplifying our signature slate of programs—from the New Voices Fellowship to our training and mentorship series—to partner organizations, prospective funders, and public supporters. I can't wait to meet many members of AIR's community in the coming year. 

Prior to AIR, I spent 5+ years working across the digital media and publishing realm in a mix of editorial and communications-centric roles at 29th Street Publishing, Little, Brown & Company, and Vanity Fair.

I'm also a freelance arts & culture writer and a 2015 graduate of Barnard College, Columbia University, where I studied English Literature and Dance (I trained in classical ballet and contemporary dance for ~18 years). In 2017, I co-founded Constellation, a digital publication dedicated to celebrating emerging and established creatives of marginalized genders across the globe. You can find my features, essays, and interviews in publications including Vanity Fair, Vestoj, AnOther, Garage, Lindsay, and The Wine Zine.

I'm currently based in Brooklyn, New York.
