Hi, I'm Allison.
I like blinking cursors & blank pages & chicken scratch.
They all mean possibilities.
I've spent my career exploring what's possible for businesses across industries and continents. Each one has a story, and I love helping my teams and clients find their voice through words, stories, and strategies.
Welcome to my work.
From brand strategy & narrative, to brand voice & messaging, to creative leadership & executive alignment—you'll find it all here.

I get to the root of the story by turning business goals and plans and visions into a clear, concentrated promise to the world.
I find the right combination of powerful language that captures the essence of each brand and connects with real people in the real world through voice, tone, and messaging.
I help brands send the right signal at the right time, synthesizing their most important message into their least forgiving touch points.
I work with key stakeholders to align business and product vision with corporate narrative across keynotes and executive communications.

Project Type: Verbal Identity Creation
Verbal Lead: Senior Director, Brand Strategy & Storytelling
Date: August 2021
Following Microsoft's 2021 repositioning around the theme "For the greater good," I led the creation of their new brand voice and strategic messaging framework, guiding key client-side stakeholders to ensure alignment and impact. This project highlights expertise in crafting clear, purpose-driven communication that elevates global brands.
I also led the copywriting efforts for Microsoft's Women's History Month campaign, crafting video scripts and all verbal components that shaped the project's narrative.
