Ottavia Lezzi

Digital Communications Manager

Ottavia Lezzi joined MVP in June 2026 as Digital Communications Manager, leading our “surround-sound” digital strategy to engage our supporters online, grow our donor community, and level up our digital reach. 

Before MVP, Ottavia built almost a decade of expertise in digital strategy, email program development, digital fundraising, and advocacy communications across organizations at the intersection of public policy, advocacy, and digital organizing — from Revolution Messaging and Trilogy Interactive, where she led programs for clients ranging from Senator Chuck Schumer to hyper-local nonprofits, to Instacart, where she built the company's first public policy digital engagement program from scratch.

Ottavia holds a BA in International Studies from the University of Washington and an MA in Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies with a concentration in public policy from George Washington University. She lives in Berkeley, California, with her partner and her perfect little dog, Bella, and spends as much time as possible on the Northern California coast.
