Where do I begin? She’s known for being strict, but she is such a kind-hearted professor. She helps build scenarios that would happen in real life and let us know what is right and how the textbook applies to things like that. She shows us textbook material and simplifies it and shows us how to do it and will supervise us and let us know if we are doing it right or how to correct us in real time which is very helpful. I appreciate her advocating for her students in clinical and for being a mother figure and guiding us while being strict.

Ally consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that students not only grasp complex clinical concepts but also develop the critical thinking skills required for success in the field. She is patient, approachable, and always available to offer guidance. Her dedication to teaching and her genuine care for us students have made a significant impact on my education and personal growth. Her passion for nursing and teaching is inspiring, and it has motivated me to strive for excellence in everything I do. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn under her guidance.

Allison exemplifies what it means to be an educator. She creates a safe space for students to be both seen and heard in her learning environment. She has an unmatched enthusiasm for teaching students, and I have learned so much from her. She thinks outside the box and is such an advocate for the future nurses she teaches, and she deserves to be recognized.
