Hello! My name is Alissa, and I am the Egg Donor Program Case Manager at My Donor Connection. I have the privilege of working closely with our generous egg donors and the wonderful intended parents who match with them as they build their families.

As someone who has personally walked the path of an intended parent, I understand how emotional and overwhelming this journey can feel. I am an open book and always happy to answer questions – whether about the egg donation process itself or what it is like from the intended parent perspective.

I live in Minneapolis with my husband, Wade, our daughter Willa, and our extra-chubby (and very loved) cat, Kimchi. I have worked in this industry for over four years and previously spent time in the nonprofit philanthropy world. In both spaces, I have had the privilege of working with incredibly generous people, and I feel so lucky that my career centers around helping others grow their families.

While this was not a club I ever imagined joining, it is one I am deeply grateful for. Helping intended parents experience the joy of parenthood is the most meaningful part of what I do.
