Four Leaf Communications Welcomes Strategic Communications Associate Olivia Kjorlien

Four Leaf Communications is proud to welcome Olivia Kjorlien as the newest member of our growing team, joining us as a Strategic Communications Associate.

A graduate of the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, Olivia earned her degree in Communication with an emphasis in Public Relations and Social Media. During her time on campus, she built hands-on experience creating content for the university’s Communication Department and The Student Engagement Center. She also contributed to her Hip Hop team by helping develop and design apparel, work that highlighted her eye for branding, style, and audience connection.

Outside the classroom, Olivia worked at her local golf course as a bartender, spent free time creating standout social media content on her own channels, and discovered a natural ability to connect with audiences. Her short-form content has generated millions of views, giving her real-world insight into what engages people and why.

“Olivia strengthens our capabilities in exactly the areas where Four Leaf is growing,” said Founder & President John Laughrin, also a UWGB alum. “Her curiosity, her drive, and her instincts for what resonates on social are a perfect fit for the work we’re doing for clients across Northeast Wisconsin.”

In her role, Olivia supports a wide range of Four Leaf initiatives, including campaign development, content creation, PR execution, community presence, and business development. Whether she’s helping shape a message, designing an outreach strategy, or representing Four Leaf at community events, she brings a thoughtful, energetic presence that elevates the entire operation.

“We’re building a company rooted in authenticity, storytelling, and real connection,” Laughrin added. “Bringing on another UW-Green Bay graduate who shares those values just makes sense. We’re thrilled to have Olivia on the team.”

Four Leaf Communications Establishes Advisory Board

In June 2025, Four Leaf Communications established an Advisory Board to help guide the company’s growth and long-term strategy. The board includes three respected media veterans: Jim Arneson, Brad Heinkel, and Mike Smith, who bring decades of experience in broadcasting, sales, and executive leadership. Their insight will help strengthen Four Leaf’s mission to support small and mid-sized businesses across Northeast Wisconsin.
