Olivia Omega Logan is a Colorado-native and an entrepreneurial spirit at heart. She is the founder of Congrats from Colorado (CfC), a local conglomerate of juvenile product manufactures that offers a one-stop gift resource for parents. This venture was born out of her need for a professional industry network after launching Baby Candy, a national infant clothing line inspired by her children. Olivia is now known in the Denver-metro area as a mompreneur advocate, juvenile industry expert and PR/marketing guru, specializing in targeting the mom market.

At age 13 she launched her first clothing line, dressing decorative stuffed animals many years before Build-A-Bear created their niche and established the market. Olivia has an extensive background in brand positioning and new product development, working on national brands including Pepsi, Frito-Lay, Dominos Pizza, Carefree, Enfamil, Huggies and The Almond Board of California. Before becoming self-employed, she developed the grassroots
marketing and outreach program for local non-profit CollegeInvest, targeting Denver-metro moms through workshops, event sponsorships, PR and non-traditional media.

Olivia received her undergraduate degree in Marketing and Business Administration at the Leeds School of Business, University of Colorado-Boulder.
