On a personal front, maintaining a healthy work/ life balance is one of Alana's missions. Her husband and children are at the center of her world. An avid traveler and adventure seeker, Alana has slept on the Great Wall of China, experienced the Northern Lights in Finland and volunteered in the post-tsunami recovery effort in Thailand in 2005.
