RHONDA’S AVIARY, MILTON, FL

Baby birds bring joy to Rhonda Olson’s life, as do her teenage feathered friends/co-workers Roscoe the Panama Amazon and Jasper the Umbrella Cockatoo. Add to that a love of learning that extends well beyond professional topics for Rhonda’s Aviary, the business she founded in 2006, and Olson leads a busy life well balanced by her supportive husband, John, and regular self-reflection and acceptance.
