Allyson (Dress) Avenarius has worn many hats over her more than 5 years with St. Mark, but her love and dedication for the kids and families at St. Mark has never changed.
She started as a para at our Dyersville Elementary location in 2017 and joined our administrative team in 2019.
As Strategic Resources Coordinator, Allyson assists with HR and payroll as well as plans and manages St. Mark’s community outreach programs (Sponsor Angels and Apples for Students) and fundraising events (Legacy of Learning and Ice Golf).
She shares, “I love what I do because I get to connect with our amazing families and donors. Helping to make sure our families are taken care of is always my priority and motivation when planning our events.”
When not working, Allyson loves to spend time with her family and go on spontaneous weekend trips.
