She is currently studying at California State University, Fullerton and is majoring in Kinesiology with a concentration in Clinical Movement Science in hopes of becoming a Physical Therapist.

Allyssa has hiked Angels Landing and is planning to go back to Utah to hike The Narrows. Every winter season she travels to a new location to go snowboarding with her friends.
