Yep, I'm a Red Sox fan!
A die-hard Red Sox fan, Allison is glad to be back in New England! After spending about 3 1/2 years pursuing a TV job in Syracuse, NY, she knew she wanted to start a new career that would get her back to using the Web skills she learned in college.
Allison grew up in western Massachusetts, and fell in love with the Burlington area while going to St. Michael’s College. It was there that she got her first taste of the Web world. She worked as the Online Editor of the Burlington Free Press for a year before heading to Syracuse for more schooling and a TV job.
She and her fiance were hoping to get back to the Burlington area, and in 2010 they both landed jobs within miles of each other in the Green Mountain state. If Allison’s not working, she’s probably out jogging, skiing (if there’s snow!), volunteering or hanging out with friends.

Allison in Pictures…
Me and my fiance Rene out in Rochester, NY
While Rene was working for Fox Sports, I got the chance to go to a couple NASCAR races, including this one in Pocono, PA.
I got a "hot" pass, so I was able to go out on the track with Rene and get right in the thick of the action!
Covering the Watkins Glen NASCAR race for the TV station News 10 Now in Syracuse, NY (also known as YNN Syracuse).
Here I am at a bar in the Syracuse area, interviewing a Syracuse University basketball fan for News 10 Now.

Finishing my first triathlon! It wasn't a full triathlon- 1.5 mile swim, 20 mile bike ride, 3.5 mile run- but it was still pretty intense!
At home in Hadley with my parents and our family friend. We were watching the 350th Hadley Anniversary parade!
