Olea Noall has grown up surrounded by bonsai at Bonsai Direct, as the second daughter of bonsai expert Lloyd Noall. Caring for these miniature trees comes completely naturally to her — it’s something she has lived and breathed from an early age.
With a Master’s degree in Renewable Energy Engineering, Olea brings a fresh, knowledgeable perspective to the Bonsai Direct team, blending technical insight with a deep-rooted love for nature. She plays an active role in sharing her expertise, often appearing on TikTok Live to demonstrate bonsai care and discuss the beauty of each tree.
Olea also contributes behind the scenes, helping to create informative content that supports customers in caring for their own bonsai. Her passion, calm enthusiasm, and lifelong connection to these beautiful little trees make her a valued part of the Bonsai Direct family.
