This is a photo of me (Alison Sollars), a white woman with pale skin, dark brown hair, and brown eyes. I have a slight smile here, long straight hair, and the picture has a teal background.

Welcome to my learning corner!

I’m Alison Sollars. Folks often call me Ally. I love a good play on words—so let me be your learning ally, a vision partner to meet your organizational needs.

My goal is to make learning that “sticks” for your learners. To do this, I use practical, inclusive, empathetic practices.

Samples of my work:

  • Decorative Image: a stack of notebooks

    Workshops and Presentations

    I’ve presented on gamification in learning, how to transition from teaching to L&D, and much more! Check out this webinar I co-authored and presented with my friend, Ricky Fisher!

  • Decorative Image: A laptop sits open in front of a big window where the sun is either rising or setting and gives an orange glow. A teacup and saucer (teal in color) sit on the table near the lapttop.

    Check out my full portfolio of volunteer work, always a work in progress. My most common tools are Articulate 360 Rise/Storyline, Adobe Creative, and Camtasia, but I dabble in other tools such as 7taps, Canva, Loom, and Figma.
