Where is Alison now?: I am working on a master's degree in music teaching at UNH - I'm currently interning at Danville Elementary School. Next semester I'll be at Wells Junior High and High School in Maine. I'm also very busy planning a wedding with David Graichen (#59)! I miss playing in band every day but I'm having a great time teaching little kids about music!
