Alyson is a neurodivergent/disabled actor and filmmaker. She is an unconventional soul who craves deeper connection and understanding with the people and the world around her, and tries to achieve that through the art of storytelling. When not acting, Alyson loves reading, watching old films, studying photography and ballet, learning languages and accents, and enjoying the beauty of quiet moments.

In past roles, Alyson has played a disabled woman struggling with internalized ableism (Push Through), a twin facing her family’s past and her ongoing struggles with OCD (The Firefly Web), a children’s illustrator dealing with psychological grief (Hands), an idealistic yet deeply conflicted individual in a dismal universe (Wordsmith), a lonely girl finding love in an unusual way (Donut Shoppe Rendezvous), and a mysterious and free-spirited girl raised in the wild (Wild Life).
