About

Hi, I’m Allison - a designer, artist, facilitator, and guinea pig enthusiast. In 2025, I moved from Los Angeles to the east coast to attend the Center for Cartoon Studies (CCS) in White River Junction, VT, where I am currently a graduate student.

I am part of the team at Collective UNBound (UNB), a Los Angeles-based group that envisions a future where extractive models of architecture and design are obsolete, replaced by a liberated, justice-driven practice that transforms environments and empowers communities.

As a Certified Public Participation Professional (CP3), I have experience engaging communities across both the public and private sectors. I hold a BFA in Industrial Design from the Rhode Island School of Design and a BA in Urban Studies from Brown University.

When I’m not working, I can be found rock climbing, hanging out with my little dog Radar and his friends, or crocheting (my current project is a hot dog cardigan). Please reach out if you want to collaborate, learn more about my work, or just say hi!
