welcome to my wonderland
Hi!
I'm Alison. And I'm living the dream in New York City. That looks like a lot of things - sometimes good and sometimes bad. I embrace and welcome it all. I've found that New York either exhausts people or energizes them. For me, I find it to be completely energizing. While I think much of that comes from being a total extrovert in addition to an aspiring actress, I also think it comes from my chosen perspective.
I truly believe that what you look for in life is what you’ll find. Here, you’ll get a glimpse at what I look for in my day to day. I hope you like what you find :)

It’s been a tough few weeks to be a Catholic.
Following the Pennsylvania grand jury report released a few weeks ago, my emotions have run the full gamut. Of course there is so much pain and sorrow when more stories like these are revealed. But I’ve also been feeling bet...

It’s a weird time.
I feel like everyone I talk to these days is going through a major life event. My friends are suddenly changing careers, moving across the country, traveling the world, leaving their longtime partners, and generally making drastic life changes. It see...

When I first started working for lululemon, I worked under an incredible manager named Sara. I will forever be grateful to this woman because she took the time to teach me what setting powerful goals really looks like.
One of the tidbits she taught me is that it can be...

I have a subway crush.
My bestie Trey and I DREAM of this stuff. It’s a regular old day, you rush onto your regular old train and wham. There he is. He looks up, you share a smile. Every so often you peek up and realize he hasn’t stopped looking at you. You keep sharing...

Go while the going is good
Knowing when to leave may be the smartest thing anyone can learn.
Go!
I'm afraid my heart isn't very smart.
Fly while your still have your wings
Knowing when to leave will never let you reach the point of no return.
