A well-trained actress, Alyson was cast in three ABC Disney TV pilots and filmed two of them: "Big House" and "What Leonard Comes Home To and has appeared on numerous skits for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Her scope of acting also includes several commercials, voice-overs and theater.
Alyson likes her time on the sports playing field, too! She enjoys playing both basketball and soccer with her friends on the school teams. She's also been known to play softball, volleyball and golf and has some impressive gymnastics moves as well. If it's sports-related, she'll try it and like it!
When Alyson is not acting, dancing or playing sports, she sometimes sits down at her keyboard at home to compose her own songs. Sometimes she challenges her sister, Jaimee, to some "hoops" at home and other times, you'll find her with oldest sister Correy, choreographing a new dance! But she'll also tell you it's always great to be with her friends during the day at her school and getting together with them now and then for a birthday party or special occasion.
