Lívia Moraes

Youth & YOB Outreach Advocate

Born and raised in Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, Brasil, Lívia brings a passion for community, music, and advocacy to our team. Partnering with Gabby on the Youth Operational Board, she ensures that young voices are heard and valued in every decision. Rooted in a love for music, Lívia finds joy in the melodies of Brazilian samba & jazz, reggae rhythms, and the tunes of Madonna and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Since first setting foot in the Berkshires in 2016, she has been captivated by its charm and nature, a place where she feels most at peace. Whether birdwatching or simply reveling in the company of animals, she finds comfort and inspiration in the great outdoors. Family holds an irreplaceable space in Lívia's heart, with her parents and brother serving as cherished idols, guiding her along life's journey. Beyond her advocacy work, Lívia finds joy in dancing, being in/by the water and celebrating with friends. With a background in accounting and years spent dedicated to supporting adults with disabilities, she brings with her a wealth of experience and empathy.
