Allison Dyck

Allison grew up in Elmwood and has lived in the North End for the last several years. She is fiercely passionate about people, community, animals, and nature. Ever-curious about why people do what they do, she completed a Bachelor and a Master’s degree in Psychology. Her research background is in neurodevelopment, uncovering adaptive and maladaptive brain change both pre- and post-natally. Bioresearch also taught her that academia was not a good fit for her and she has joyously been working in community. Allison joined the board in early 2022 and is excited to put her creative, methodical mind to use within the Centre.
