Spotlight Ali Clark


Meet Ali, What a lady!


I have 3 kids who are Justin 5th grade, Ryan 1st grade, Ava Kindergarten.  July is a crazy month for us because we have birthdays on the 13th, 15th and 17th

I grew up all over the place but we landed in Bountiful when I was 11.  I went to Bountiful High School and then on to BYU where I received my degree in Psychology…. I’m always psychoanalyzing anyone and everyone.  It’s so interesting to watch people and their behaviors!

Josh and I met when we were attending our best friend’s weddings.  We were both in the wedding party.  We went out a couple of times, but neither of us remember too much about it…  kind of sad.. LOl.. I went on to get married and was married for 6 years and had my son Justin.  Shortly after my divorce, our same friends who set us up when we were in our early 20’s, set us up again.  I always tease Josh that he was just so smitten by me and that’s why he never had gotten married.  We married and had our 2 other kids, Ryan and Ava, who are 13 months apart… not planned.  Crazy but so worth it!  ( I don’t know how to paraphrase all of this so just take what you want and put it in there).

I’ve always had a love for Hollywood… My teenage years and throughout my twenties, I landed small roles in TV shows and movies.. Had a blast doing it!  Met some amazing people.  Living in California was obviously a highlight for me. 

I’m an entrepreneur.  I love business.  I started to own companies at the age of 16 starting with my own dance studio.  I’ve done so many things and just love finding ways to keep my brain thinking.  Currently I own a business called Treehouse Rock.  It’s a children’s performance studio that offers kids 2-17 instruction in Modeling, Exercise, Singing, and all sorts of Dance.  It was the one thing that has kept me occupied since moving back from California.  I really wanted an outlet and the moment we moved back, I got it all organized and started.  It’s by Smith’s.    

One of my former businesses was a Children’s Accessory store.  I became so involved with working overseas for my inventory that I became the middleman between US companies and  China.  I design what companies need and contact my sources in Asia and then provide the businesses with exactly what they are looking for.  Just another one of my businesses on the side J Hope that makes sense.  I still do it because it’s fun.

One of my greatest blessings in my life are my friends and family.  As much as I hated to leave Orange County, I was excited to have my friends and family so close.  I am the party planner in most situations  and love it… I guess that’s a hobby too.  I also love to decorate and love crafts… I am always finding ways to create something awesome!

I love people.  I truly do.  I find myself talking about my life history to people in the grocery store.  I have no stranger danger.

I’m in the Primary right now.. with the 8 year olds.  They are darling, and I am so glad I have this position right now in my life… because it’s a crazy life that I have.

Love Music.

I hate cooking.

I love kids.

I hate feet.

I love chocolate truffles.

My dream job would be like Oprah.

My happy place is Maui.

My sad place is my laundry room

We are so happy to get to know Ali,Oh and she doesn't want us to forget her cute dog Ruby!
