Meet Connor, our Five Points South District Manager! Connor is a Birmingham transplant, originally hailing from Indiana and having attended Ball State University (go Cardinals!). Upon graduation, Connor moved to Birmingham to be closer to his family and spent his career working in advertising, where he successfully managed marketing projects and campaigns while cultivating strong client relationships. Now as the Five Points South District Manager with REV, Connor gets to build upon those same principles by listening, casting vision and taking action with the district’s business and property owners. By collaborating with the community, Connor envisions a vibrant Five Points South that continues to promote entertainment, walkability and diversity. Connor’s interests include all things related to urban planning and development, hanging out with his niece and nephew, cooking, reading, drinking coffee or beer, and petting some good dogs!

Meet Olivia! 👋 Olivia is our Finance & Admin Manager here at REV. Olivia returned to REV in a blaze of glory following burning down the Zyp Bikeshare program in 2019. She does the finances and the admins and other boring things no one else likes to do. She likes walking, riding bikes, busses, trains, dive bars, PBR, vegetables and sewing. She has no children or pets and all her plants are thirsty. P.S. She also wins the award for driest sense of humor on the team, as evidenced by this masterful social caption. 😉
