About Allie
I'm just a real girl whose had real struggles, but is standing tall today with a heart full of joy. For much of high school and college I battled depression, insecurity, disordered eating and loneliness, but today I wear a smile stretched across my face even though life can be hard and get messy at times. I am in love with a real God who loves the real me - with all my flaws, baggage and quirks (and I have a lot of them!). I'm trying to live authentically in a skin-deep world. My story is a testament to God's ability to redeem the messiest parts of our lives and make something beautiful out of our darkest ashes. I love to surf, ride horses, cuddle with my husband, spend time with my amazing besties, listen to bluegrass and drink big cups of coffee and tea. I am also quite infamous for my inability to sing on tune, though that hasn't stopped me from belting out my favorite songs.
