Allison is a recent graduate of SDSU with degrees in agricultural communications and animal science. She joins AMS as a communication specialist, focusing mainly on the Minnesota Soybean county programs. She grew up on her family's farm in Hutchinson, where they raise dairy and beef cows, grow corn, soybeans, small grains and organic aronia berries alongside operating a farm store. The dairy industry has shaped a lot of Allison's life, as she was a Princess Kay of the Milky Way finalist in 2022 and is the dairy royalty coordinator & social media manager for the McLeod County American Dairy Association. While most of her time outside of work is spent on the farm, she also enjoys reading and baking and staying connected as an alumni member of the Hutchinson FFA Chapter.
