Creative Visionary & Fearless Leader
I’m an art director and designer who brings a native New Yorker’s multicultural edge, an entrepreneur’s spirit, and a storyteller’s eye to every brand I touch. With 8+ years of experience across fashion, media, CPG, and tech, I specialize in creating visual worlds that are as strategic as they are stylish. My work has shaped everything from editorial and branding at Business Insider to retail design at Tory Burch and visual identity and digital campaigns at Publicis Sapient, as well as leading social-first art direction for startups.

My work lives at the intersection of strategy and style—balancing aesthetics with performance. I’ve directed cross-functional teams, built scalable brand systems, concepted motion-forward campaigns, and brought digital and experiential ideas to life across platforms. Whether I’m storyboarding social video, building a design toolkit, or shaping a full-scale rebrand, I lead with intention and deliver with clarity. Looking for a creative partner who can lead, design, and elevate your brand? Let’s talk over coffee, a round of golf, or virtually!

I believe great creative comes from living fully—
and I bring that energy into every project.
I got my start at LaGuardia Arts High School (aka the "Fame School") in Manhattan where celebrities like Timothee Chalamet, Robert DiNiro, and Jennifer Aniston graduated from. Majored in fine arts and New York became my creative playground. I then earned my degree at Syracuse University studying technology, design and photography. Beyond design, I embrace ventures that fuel my creativity. In 2024, I modeled in White Claw’s non-alcoholic campaign, and in 2019, I launched an Airbnb Experience photography tour, capturing NYC’s hidden gems for clients worldwide. Outside of design, I’m likely playing on my women’s golf league, traveling, following Formula 1, painting, exploring art exhibits, or perfecting my latest DIY nail set.

Testimonials
Alex Honeysett
Founder of Human at the Helm
Allison is an exceptionally talented designer. I sat on my old website for a year because I didn’t know how to articulate what I wanted to create. Allison took my thoughts and built a brand aesthetic and website that showcases the true soul of the business. In addition to her beautiful designs, she’s a joy to work with. I can’t recommend her enough!”
Eunice Kang
Founder of Brand & Branders
I had the pleasure of working with Allison on several branding projects and I am always amazed by Allison's work - which is both timeless and modern. Her creativity and great personality makes her a dream designer to work with as she is very reliable and you can always depend on her to get things done on time!
Jennie Shin
Curriculum Specialist
Meticulous yet flexible. Those are two words to describe Allison's professional style. She's open to ideas while giving me her own professional input. Her designs absolutely suit me, even more than I thought they would. This is because she is careful to ask the right questions that guide her client to what they think that they might want. I will definitely be entrusting Allison for my design needs in the future, and look forward to working with her on other projects.

Allison was a real pleasure to work with. She was fast with responses and understood the vision well. She completed the logo design to my liking promptly. Highly recommend!
