.032 Ally Dodakian
Whenever I’m around Ally or even just chatting with her, I get a jolt of good energy and much-needed comic relief. She’s quick with her humor and intelligence and is the perfect addition to any group or conversation. A lot of my closest friends are best friends with Ally, and knowing that she is a constant figure in their lives brings me so much joy and comfort.
Ally genuinely inspires me with her prowess and confidence. She’s clearly a leader and brings her strength to everything she does. She also combines this with a wonderful ability to be honest and charismatic, ultimately allowing for everyone to feel comfortable and at ease. She has a fabulous laugh and smile, which naturally are contagious. No topic is off limits with her, once again adding to the fact that each time we talk, the conversation varies from sincere and funny, in-depth and silly, real and important. Ally is trustworthy and loyal and gives each person in her life the same amount of respect, compassion and encouragement.
Ally, thank you for being in my life and for always making me feel good. Thank you for your wickedly smart brain and hilarious sense of humor (cue talking to Justin about poop). Thank you for being so much fun to be around and for knowing exactly what to say at just the right time. I’m so grateful that we’ve gotten to see each other more through these NYC years, and obviously want more time when COVID semi-settles down. Thank you for being such an overall rockstar in life and for inspiring us through your actions and way of living. Thank you for being you!
