Allison is running to bring a practical approach and evidence-based solutions to the critical issues facing Ohio and our district.

A public health policy expert, Allison has spent nearly two decades advising government leaders and policymakers on issues related to the healthcare financing and care delivery needs of seniors, vulnerable populations, Veterans, and military families. She is currently the Policy Research Director for a public policy consulting firm, where as a member of her company’s leadership team, she leads business development efforts and strategy for this Federally-qualified small business.
