Allysons colorful life has given her many skills. Today, she lays claim to professions that auspiciously interact. Psychology Student.

Like the authors she helps, she has enthusiasm for storytelling. Allyson delights in creating fiction that entertains. Game Designer. She writes and edits tabletop role-playing games through her company, Pandahead Publishing. She will use her gaming experience to research a psychological thesis that centers on the benefit of play therapy for adults.
