About me
I'm Alison. I've loved writing stories for as long as I could hold a pencil. But it was only in 2015 that I decided to pursue screenwriting as a career. In between, I've had many jobs, including children's theater actor, receptionist, retail associate selling fancy kitchen stuff, production assistant, and barista. You can read more about my path to screenwriting here.
When not writing I enjoy filling my mind with other people's stories via podcasts, movies, TV, and books. I love travel, dogs (especially mine), recently cats (!) and a really good steak.
