A Stanford Phi Beta Kappa grad and Harvard-trained lawyer, Alison stepped back from law to build LA's first after-school gifted program before founding Parker College Planning.

About Me

Alison Parker earned her A.B. in Human Biology with distinction from Stanford, where she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa and served as one of only a few undergraduate teaching assistants, before going on to earn her J.D. from Harvard Law School and practicing law until the birth of her oldest son. Stepping back to focus on her children, she found her way into education through extensive volunteer work — including creating the first after-school enrichment program for middle schoolers in the Las Virgenes School District, for which she received A.E. Wright Middle School's highest honor, the "Golden W" award.

Realizing where her real passion lay, Alison earned her Certificate in College Counseling from UCLA Extension and founded Parker College Planning, later joining College Connection, a nationwide network of college counselors. She belongs to WACAC and HECA, volunteers with Camp College supporting underprivileged LAUSD students, and has spoken at the Las Virgenes Gifted Education Conference and Calabasas High School.
