What is your role with haku?

I’m a CX manager at haku, I work with local clients to make sure they get the most out of our services.

How would you describe yourself to someone who’s never met you?

I would describe myself as a very motivated and positive person. Someone who is into living their healthiest lifestyle and connecting with others to help them do the same.

What is your favorite place you’ve traveled to? 

Reykjavik, Iceland! I saw the most beautiful landscapes and even walked on an iceberg!

What is a dream destination you haven’t been to?

Sydney, Australia. I hope to go watch the Ballet at the Sydney Opera House one day.

How would you define success?

Success is doing more than you thought you were capable of. Success is also acknowledging your weaknesses and using them to grow. Success is pushing yourself out of your comfort and into your own potential.

Can you share a great piece of advice you have received or you keep in mind?

A piece of advice I was given that I think about every day is that time is non-refundable, so you can either waste it or use it.

What do you enjoy most about living in Miami?

Being near my family! I moved away for college for 4 years and definitely missed being near my family so I am definitely glad to be back with them.

What is your favorite thing to do during your free time? 

Run! I am currently training for a half-marathon that I will be running in October. My favorite part about running is the community. Running has given me many things including the tools to shape a positive mindset. I have my own running page on Instagram, @run.withallison, where I share my running journey and connect with other runners!
