Allyson first joined Prairie UU during the holiday season in 2018.  She quickly came to appreciate the social justice focus of the Prairie, and the authenticity and purpose of its members.  Allyson and her family moved to Colorado in August 2018, and she and her husband Domonic, and their two daughters, Nevaeh and Stella currently live in Aurora.  Allyson is working toward her EdD in higher education at the University of Denver and works to support College Access and Persistence for marginalized students.
