About Alison

Alison Lewis is the founder of Alison Leigh Lewis Public Relations, a boutique agency focused on PR and brand strategy for interior designers. With more than 15 years’ experience, she has secured placements in The Wall Street Journal, Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Veranda, Luxe Interiors, Garden & Gun and other national publications.

Her editorial background—as a former Southern Living editor, magazine founder, publisher, editor-in-chief, journalist and author—gives her an insider’s understanding of what editors want: strong narratives, compelling visuals and story angles that resonate. Paired with long-standing relationships with editors and journalists across national shelter and lifestyle media, she consistently positions interior-design clients for sustained media success.

Alison provides PR leadership for the luxury resort Paws Up Montana while growing her boutique agency for interior designers, creating a powerful synergy between luxury hospitality and high‑end design that benefits both clients and the resort. Based in Birmingham, Alabama, she is active with the American Society of Interior Designers and the Public Relations Society of America, and the author of three internationally published cookbooks.
