Huntsville Area Leader, Forbes Councils Influencer, Only Person in AL Selected for Prestigious RTTR Scholarship for Advancing Women in Radio

Lifetime Achievement Award eligible, This relentless businesswoman, to help small businesses, thrive during Covid-19's initial outbreak to the present, halted legal courses to help out both locally with radio and nationwide digital and social media campaign sales. A great example of tenacity and resiliency in action!

Olivia Friedman has been busy, and the recognition is beginning to show up in many great ways, through several sources since she wasn't only acknowledged as a successful and rising protégé by American Corporate Partners as a former US Navy medical and cyber security officer under the ISSM, among the many other hats she wore, she was also recognized by RTTR for an impactful scholarship in the name of the advancement of women in radio.

What is obvious is her willingness to serve. Olivia is known for offering up her weekends to serve her local community as well. She did so wherever she happened to be stationed while with the Navy and was passionate about looking after the homeless in densely populated areas, taking special care to show them respect, while also keeping herself healthy, according to her when asked.

2021 Rising Through The Ranks (RTTR) scholarship recipients included 25 selectees from across the entire nation. Scholarship winners joined others to learning more about successful public-private partnership collaborations and partnership opportunities toward owning their own media entity, as well as partnership opportunities with the Radio Advertising Bureau, BMI, and MIW Mentoring Women in Radio.

Nationwide participants include our very own Olivia Friedman of the Great and Relentless Few Podcast. She is also brand new with one of the top 5 media companies in the nation as an account executive (AE), for the past six months.
