Alison Cayetano

About me

​Alison is the Administrative Coordinator for the Cell Biology Program at SickKids. She’s been working at SickKids for about five years, supporting four Senior Scientists and their lab’s within the program and the BTRC. Alison was born and raised in Toronto and enjoys trying out new food spots around the city. She loves to travel – there is so much to see in the world with so little time. The next spot on her bucket list is Japan!

What is your favourite part about working at the BTRC?

The people! There are so many people who are from different parts of the world. It is so interesting to hear their stories and what brought them to the BTRC.

Hobbies and interests?

I love to cook and bake for my family and friends. I am always willing to try out new recipes, even if it seems daunting, the outcome is always worth it! I also enjoy playing volleyball, especially in the summer time on the beach.

If a celebrity were to play you in a movie about your life, who would it be and why?

Zendaya, she is the perfect combination of kind, funny and awkward which I think sums me up in a nutshell. She is also a phenomenal actress.
