Red Pride...

Pass it on!

“SVSU made such a huge difference in our lives, and it still feels like home to us today,” Olivia said. “Adding SVSU license plates to our vehicles is a way for us to support SVSU and show how much we appreciate everything Saginaw Valley did for us.” — Olivia and Peter LoFiego

O

livia and Peter LoFiego are graduates and longtime supporters of the university. They pass on their Red Pride wherever they travel. Literally. Their journey together began in the late 1990s when the couple met while living in SVSU’s residential housing. Olivia and Peter began dating shortly after earning bachelor’s degrees in general science and history, respectively. That road led them to marriage in 2005, and today, they are the proud parents of a 5-year-old son, Dominic, and 3-year-old daughter, Giada. Olivia and Peter also both received master’s degrees in educational leadership, and used those academic credentials in their respective careers. Olivia is in her 16th year as a teacher at Byron High School, where she also coaches track and field as well as cross country. Peter has served as principal of Holly High School since 2011.
