Allison graduated with a B.A. degree from Carroll University in Waukesha, Wisconsin. She has a strong background in the museum field working most recently as the Visitor Service Director at Wade House Historic Site, a site owned and operated by the Wisconsin Historical Society. Allison started her museum career at Wade House, an 1850’s stagecoach inn, as a tour guide, and has worked in many capacities including program planning, event administration, visitor services, historic interpretation, and more. She has a strong passion for history and hopes to use her extensive background in customer service and management to further enhance the visitor experience at the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad.
