Alison (Alie) Fishman bought her first orchid as a souvenir in the Honolulu airport over 10 years ago (and still has yet to get that Vanda to bloom). Intrigued by the challenge, she started to build her collection with actual blooming sized orchids from Trader Joe’s soon after.
When Alie moved to San Francisco for dental school residency 6 years ago she attended the POE in Fort Mason and that’s when her collecting/hoarding really took off. Alie has a particular fondness for Angraecums and novelty Phals which she grows in her SF apartment.
When she’s not caring for her orchids Alie enjoys walking her sheepadoodle puppy, Winnie, and running in Golden Gate park. Alie is a Prosthodontist re-blooming smiles for patients with missing teeth and complex dental needs in her practices in San Francisco and San Mateo.
