Allison Young

Allison Young is an Analyst in the Digital Forensics Unit of the Legal Aid Society. Allison has expertise in computer, mobile, and cloud account preservation and analysis. She is a current Cellebrite Certified Mobile Examiner and holds a Master's degree in Digital Forensics from the University of Central Florida. She has examined hundreds of computers and cell phones during her career and has a love-hate relationship with data Allison has used her knowledge of "how computers think" to help attorneys understand the importance of their digital evidence so they can better serve their clients, sometimes resulting in reduced, settled, or dismissed outcomes in legal cases. She likes to bridge the gap between what the database says and what may have happened IRL - or point out when crossing that bridge won't necessarily bring us to the truth.
