Alison was one of five directors chosen by Lena Waithe for AT&T's 2019 Hello Lab Mentorship Program. There she directed her short film, FRAGILE.COM, which premiered at Screamfest Horror Film Festival in 2020 and has subsequently been released on Gunpowder & Sky's horror platform, Alter, where it’s garnered over one million views. Her AFI thesis film, YOU'LL ONLY HAVE EACH OTHER, has also been released on Alter as well as ShortsTV and Curia. The in-screen immersive experience she co-created, IN TREATMENT, raised awareness and funds for Action Bail Fund LA in the spring of 2020. That same year, she was honored to write the narrative for Michael Giacchino's sci-fi exotica album, TRAVELOGUE: VOLUME 1, and she looks forward to developing more projects that utilize genre as a means to explore character.
