I'm a musician, teacher and entrepreneur from Wauwatosa, WI.
As a musician I'm trained in horn, piano, voice and conducting. I've been teaching private horn, piano and some voice lessons since 2008, and continue to perform on those instruments on a freelance basis.

Working one-on-one with young people to pursue music is an extreme passion of mine. I will always have a place for private instruction in what I do.
I strive to instill a sense of independent musicianship, self-discipline and a life-long appreciation for the arts in each person I work with. Setting and attaining goals - both musically and otherwise - is part of the deal.

I founded Wisconsin Music Ventures in the summer of 2019.
We put on live music events in many places, lead musician workshops and other industry discussions, and host musician meet-ups.
The mission for our diverse community is to help independent musicians thrive in Wisconsin.
I'm the host of The Musician's Venture Podcast. WMV began producing this in the fall of 2020.
TMV is a podcast focused on lessons learned via the musician’s backstory, as well as building successful careers in the business. Allison interviews artists/industry experts, and offers insights based on events Wisconsin Music Ventures has produced.
The Firefly Brass Duo is my own brass group - which is having some nice success early in our development.
It's been exciting to form this duo with a good friend, who's also a passionate music educator!
