I grew to know Alison through our lateral positions as Territory Managers for Schumacher. She had tenure over me so I always found her as one of my go-to confidants. I always found her cheerful, enthusiastic, willing to assist and ever knowledgeable about new products and new program systems. I will always remember her fondly and would endorse her on many levels.
