Alison was born and raised, and continues to reside in Virginia Beach. She graduated from Longwood University with a Bachelor's of Science in Criminal Justice with a Minor in Art.

Ali has been a continued supporter of Connect With a Wish since it was founded and she interned with us in summer 2021. Shortly after, she was granted a position as the program manager for our Connect to Careers program. She recently transitioned to our Case Management Team to assist youth in obtaining housing on the FYI Voucher. She is grateful for all the opportunities that this work has brought to her and also getting to help our community on a daily basis.

She enjoys photography, going to the beach with friends during the summer, walks with her dog (Kingsley), and LOVES ice cream & iced coffee!
