I have worked as a creative for more than 20 years, from coordinating exhibitions in museums and designing interior environments, to creating compelling brands and immersive digital media platforms, to community placemaking and facilitating interactive public art. I even grew a company from an idea into a reality.
Human-focused design intuitively informs my approach to developing extraordinary solutions. A human-focused approach bases the creative process on truly resonating with the people we care to reach the most.
Nature is an essential aspect of creating places that I find resonates with all people. Nature connects and rejuvenates us at such an elemental level that people are intuitively drawn to nature in places where it may not be easily accessible. Art plays a similar role by inspiring us and expanding our experience beyond our norm. Both art and nature are central to every creative endeavor for me.
Ultimately, I'm passionate about achieving results that improve or transform an individual's experience of the world. I believe design is a powerful tool, not just for selling a service or a product, but for creating positive impact in the lives of all people.
EXPERTISE
Creative vision is my passion. I believe all challenges can be solved by considering the needs of the people being served.

Allison is genuinely one of the most collaborative people that I have had the pleasure to work with. Her research and understanding of what a project is all about is very impressive.
My first experience working with Allison on a project is very memorable. She was presenting the design concept for an infusion center, and the room was filled with around 20 interested parties for the project. She was amazing. The presentation was well organized and showed a deep understanding of what the proposed space would need to be for the healing of the patients.
Allison is truly a critical component of a high performance team.
