Alison O'Donoghue
First Grade Aide
Alison was born and raised in Florida and enjoyed a TGS education from kindergarten until her graduation in 2015. She studied hospitality management at Florida Gulf Coast University with the intent of going into club management, but God had other plans! Alison welcomed her daughter, Ava, in 2018. Soon after Ava’s birth, Alison began nurturing young hearts at Willow Creek Preschool, working her way up to lead teacher during her four years there. Alison loves watching young students grow in body, mind, and spirit, and she especially enjoys hearing their insightful and often hilarious candid conversations with each other.
In 2023, Ava entered K4 at Geneva, and Alison was excited to come on staff as a K4 aide in 2024. In 2026, she transitioned to the first grade team, where she serves as an aide. Alison knows firsthand the blessing of being a Geneva student and she is committed to serve with the same dedication, love, and joy she and Ava have both experienced as students at TGS.
In her spare time, Alison loves creating with her Cricut, spending time with her large, extended Florida family, and visiting Disney parks with Ava and friends and family.
