Alison Bakewell
Executive Director

Alison started as a Cake4Kids baker in 2013. After her first cake, she decided her skills were better used in operations and joined the Cake4Kids operations team as a volunteer in 2014 so she could leave the baking and decorating to more talented bakers and instead, put her IT skills to work to help set Cake4Kids up for growth. She then joined the operations team full-time in 2017, first as Director of Operations and now as Executive Director.


Before joining Cake4Kids Alison spent more than 25 years in the high-tech industry in progressive IT roles, up through to the executive ranks. Besides Cake4Kids, Alison enjoys golf, kayaking, hiking, and cooking for family and friends.
