Allison Murphy

Allison is an experienced communications leader and passionate writer. As Communications Lead, she provides critical brand, marketing, and editorial leadership to advance Adasina’s Social Justice Investing.

Allison began her career at Constructive in her native New York, where she helped nonprofits develop content marketing and digital strategies. She later worked as Senior Strategist at Siegel+Gale, partnering directly with Fortune 500 companies to craft compelling brand messaging. More recently, she co-founded Verve Strategy, an independent brand and communications consultancy.

Throughout her career, she’s been driven by the belief that words matter. Much of this belief stems from her academic background in international affairs at Northeastern University, where she learned about the power of narrative and storytelling through the lens of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Outside of work, Allison is always finding new hobbies and ways to spend her time with her partner in sunny Southern California. These days, you’ll find her surfing, trail running, birdwatching, writing short stories, and/or trying to tire out her always-alert Mini Australian Shepherd, Harley. She’s an active member of her local Surfrider chapter, helping keep her favorite place on earth — the ocean — clean.
