Ali Gilmore

Born and raised in Seattle, WA, Ali was the youngest of seven siblings. Early on, she’s known for her creative endeavors and tendency to daydream (duly noted on her report cards), but never really entertained taking her writing skills beyond hobby until in recent years. First, with a blog journaling her musical aspirations (www.aligilmoremusic.com) and then in the winter of 2012, after learning that one of her oldest friend's mother had been diagnosed, she felt compelled to write about her battle and win against stage IV cancer. That is how The C Card and Me came to be.

Ali makes her home in the beach town of Oceanside, California where she frequents local open mics and sushi joints.
