Hi! I’m Allison. I’m a native Washingtonian that lives happily alongside my sidekick/son in Tulsa. I love to travel, connect with new people and I love everything that has to do with growth, empowerment, social justice and financial wellness.

I have explored various career paths - education, government consulting, workforce / career development, and now finance. It’s important for me to do work that aligns with my own story, which is why this transition to finance makes sense. I am a life-long learner that spent a tremendous amount of money on higher education. For many years after graduating, I felt paralyzed by this massive debt and continued to dig deeper into debt. In the spring of 2016, when I learned I would become a mom, something inside of me shifted and made me determined to find a way out of debt. I spent a lot of time working side jobs, researching, and strategizing ways to pay off debt, and get ready for the next chapter. 

In early 2018, I hit a milestone of paying off over 30k of debt! When I heard co-workers express their stress around money, I started sharing my own personal experiences with them. Shortly after, I was asked to share my personal story and become a financial literacy ambassador at my workplace.
