Since Allison was able to talk, she has wanted to entertain. Then, as a teenager, with her piano-teaching mother's encouragement, she picked up a guitar. Allison started honing her skills at writing lyrics, especially parody songs. After moving to LA in 2007, she formed her parodies into a stage-ready set. Her first taste of stand-up was at The World Famous Hollywood Improv in December 2008. Allison's raunchy yet sweet and witty style made her an instant hit. Soon after, she entered in the Fresh Faces of Comedy Contest and finished in the top 3 out of the 50 comics that competed. She has since been invited to perform at such festivals as the Hollywood Comedy Festival, the San Luis Obispo Comedy Festival (in 2011, 2012, and 2013) , and the Boca Raton Winter Comedy Festival (in which she was the first place winner).
