Alison hired me as an intern for Atrium and although I didn't work directly under her, she was a wealth of knowledge. After I was promoted to assistant buyer and then to associate denim buyer, Alison was always someone I could turn to for answers. Whether it was teaching me how to run a sales report, analyzing inventory levels or merchandising the sales floor; she was always very helpful and informative. Alison was on top of the trends and knew the buying process inside and out. She has a keen sense of brands that will flourish and retail well. I learned so much about the retail industry through her. Most of what she has taught me about buying and merchandising, has greatly assisted me in my career. Alison is a mentor and someone I would love to work with again."
