Background

About Olivia Binstead

I work for Milford High School as an IT associate. I also handle client support and Northeast sales for StreetWise, Hangar 14 Solutions, LLC. Streetwise is our flagship product, which was created by firefighters for firefighter. Streetwise is an Android and iPad tablet based response software, as well as an Android and iPhone based responder application system, for emergency responders. I am a firefighter and EMR for Temple, NH Fire & Rescue. I have worn many hats in life; I have been a working student for an upper level Dressage trainer in Mooresville, North Carolina. I have walked dogs in the Greater Boston area and been certified in Pet First Aid and CPR while working at Active Paws, INC. I also house sat for clients and watched dogs and cats while working there. I have always had a great love for animals and have owned many over the years. I have two dogs and three cats and two horses. I also spent 16 years working as a lighting technician and wardrobe mistress for Broadway national tours, large scale corporate productions and community theatre companies through out Grand Rapids, MI and the country. I have also stage managed, production managed, and handled creation of large scale shows. Handling everything from budgets, managing staff and large crews, and working with multi-million dollar companies to bring their visions to life. I am a former theatre rat who still enjoys going to see shows, and greatly misses the work but loves having a home for once. I have recently started my own riding instructor business and run the day to day operations of our small, private farm, Puck’s Brae Farm. In my free time I read everything from Dante and Jane Austen to Harry Potter and write a blog related to personal tragedy and my former life as a theatre rat. I run, stand up paddle board and spend as much time outside as I can. I ride horses and have a love for dogs! I love to hike when I can and love to bird watch and look for critters. I do needlepoint and crochet and binge watch things like Downton Abbey, M*A*S*H* and The Andy Griffith Show.
