I'm Allison Foley.
I learned to ask the question “why not?” at a very young age. I’m told that I would ask it in many contexts, from curiosity to defiance to encouragement. Those two words have been responsible for some of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Because I learned to ask “why not?”, I was admitted into my top choice university— the University of Colorado at Boulder (Go Buffs) and served as Vice President of our Student Body my senior year. I fundraised over $5,000 to travel to Thailand to rebuild a community after the devastating tsunami in 2007. I shaved my head and raised over $4,000 for a pediatric cancer foundation. I landed my first job after college that allowed me to travel to Vienna and Paris for International Business training. I have met some of my heroes and checked off many of the items on my bucket list. I have never been one to ask “why?” — I am driven by solutions and love the challenge of getting difficult things done.
It’s never “why me?” It’s always “why not?”
