Transitioning from a celebrated career as a real estate attorney, she now focuses on nonprofit initiatives, particularly after enduring a personal and highly publicized custody battle. Her involvement extends to the RETI Center, where she helps underprivileged communities secure employment in green industries. Allison's initial career path was as a real estate attorney in New York City, where she was a partner at Gold Scollar Moshan. She managed various real estate transactions, including sales, acquisitions, and leases. She extended her expertise to the art world, aiding artists and galleries in legal matters and space leases. Her commitment also involved supporting emerging musicians through the Concert Artists Guild and contributing to New York's vibrant cultural scene. The turning point in her life was a strenuous custody fight for her daughter, Harrison, after her former partner unlawfully removed Harrison, leading to a prolonged legal struggle. The ordeal, which spanned numerous court appearances, was both emotionally and financially draining and highlighted significant biases within the legal system. In 2012, after a grueling series of court battles, she was awarded sole custody of Harrison, a verdict that resonated with the LGBTQ+ community and adoptive parents, emphasizing her role as the more responsible parent. Yet, the victory was overshadowed by continuous legal confrontations and personal attacks from her ex-partner, involving severe allegations that brought unnecessary scrutiny to her daughter. In response to these adversities, Allison shifted her focus towards advocacy and nonprofit work, particularly with the RETI Center. She plays a significant role in the center's development, enhancing programs that advocate for environmental justice and sustainable development.
