ABOUT Hendrix, better known as Dex, grew up in Maple Creek, a small island town where the Oliver family name is well-known and respected. Dex was raised by his two dads in a warm and loving household, and they are both a significant part of the community. The decision to have children was important to his fathers.

They are the biological children of one of their dads.

Dex's twin sister, has been his steady rock throughout his life. While Dex is impulsive and often absentminded, his sister is more level-headed and has always looked out for him. She often keeps him grounded when his impulsive nature takes over. They are extremely close, even when they have their arguments.

Dex was always a bundle of energy growing up, and his dads, a lawyer and an art teacher, made sure he had every opportunity to explore his interests. Whether it was sports, music, or climbing around the island, Dex was always kept himself busy. His parents' wealth allowed him to pursue any passion he desired, whether it was learning the guitar or trying his hand at drums. He was known to be a little hyper, but everyone knew him as a lovable, caring boy.

School wasn’t Dex’s strongest suit, mainly because he was easily distracted but his cheeky smile and charm helped him get away with a lot, even when he got into minor trouble. Though sometimes inattentive, Dex had natural intelligence, and his dads pushed him to stay focused. Music became a big outlet for his energy in high school, and he joined a band, playing guitar, piano, and drums. His natural charisma also landed him lead roles in school plays.

While his carefree nature persisted, Dex’s love for animals and science emerged as a real passion during his teenage years. He worked hard in school, volunteered at a local animal shelter, worked at the town's summer camp and eventually secured a spot off the island at the University of Massachusetts to study Veterinary Medicine. Dex loved being just a short trip from home and balanced his studies with his band. Despite the challenges of working with animals, his kind-hearted, empathetic nature made him a natural.

After earning his degree, Dex returned to Maple Creek and, with the support of his family’s wealth and took over the small island animal hospital. Now the proud owner and vet at DC Animal Clinic, Dex has made the clinic his own, renaming it and modernising its facilities.

At 32, Dex’s impulsive and energetic personality hasn’t chnaged. Outside of work, he’s still busy playing with his band, gaming, camping, and spending time outdoors with his dog. His sister remains a steady presence in his life, often keeping him on track and supporting him in running the clinic. Despite his quirks and occasional absentmindedness, Dex’s loyalty, warmth, and deep care for those around him make him a good friend and supportive person in Maple Creek.
