“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” – Harold R. McAindon

Since 1998 Alison has been using this philosophy to inspire creative and proactive solutions that are tailored to our clients’ specific needs. An attentive and earnest listener, she takes the time to really understand what is at the core of our clients’ issues.
 
With Alison, client service is a true priority. She often makes herself available outside of generally accepted business hours in order to accommodate the people that depend on her. She understands that the hours that work for once business may not work for another and strives to assure that their service experience is not compromised because of it.

She is the recipient of such distinctions as the BPW Young Careerist Award and the NAWBO Bridge Builder Award.

Core Specializations
 
Interests
A strong work/life balance is very important to Alison.  She treasures her time boating, beaching, cooking and traveling with her husband and their children, family and friends.  Ever energetic, there’s not much that can slow her down, even during her recent battle with cancer, which she says has changed her life in a positive way.  A big fan of fitness, you can usually find her in the gym before and after work or out on one of the beautiful trails or boardwalks in the resort area! Alison also plans to give back to the community and other cancer patients and other survivors in any way that she can.
