Alison Victoria          

Interior Designer; Host of HGTV's "Kitchen Crashers"

Alison Victoria, a Chicago native, moved to Las Vegas in 1999 to attend the University of Nevada Las Vegas, where she graduated and embarked on her professional career as the youngest designer at Christopher Homes in Las Vegas. After two years of creating stunning interior designs for affluent semi-custom residences, Victoria launched her own consulting firm, Alison Victoria Interiors. Soon after, she was given a life-changing chance when Silverton Casino Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada hired her as creative director where she oversaw its $160 million expansion.

As Founder and President of Alison Victoria Interiors with offices in Chicago and Las Vegas, today she is primarily based in Chicago and is known for creating glamorous, modern interiors with a client list that includes high-end boutiques, resorts and private residences.

Victoria is a well-rounded interior designer with signature style but she is most famous for her beautiful range of kitchen designs and her unique ability to see the beauty in any space and transform it into something magnificent.

Becoming the first female lead in the popular Crashers franchise, Alison Victoria hosted “Kitchen Crashers” for nine seasons on HGTV and DIY Network. Victoria surprised homeowners with extravagant kitchen redesigns completed in just a few short days. She hunted in stores across America for weekend warriors who could definitely use some help bringing style, beauty and simplicity to create harmony in their kitchens. The popular series reboot is in development and expected to return in 2022.

Proud to be from Chicago, Victoria now is the star of HGTV’s hit series “Windy City Rehab.” The series follows Victoria in her role as developer and designer, as she buys vintage homes in her native Chicago, then transforms them into buyer-friendly dream properties. In so doing, she not only turns a tidy profit, but helps to preserve historic homes and structures, and contributes to the enhancement and revitalization of whole neighborhoods.

The episode delivered a .69 live plus three-day rating among P25-54 and a .80 L3 rating among W25-54, resulting in double-digit ratings gains of 50 percent and 33 percent respectively over the prior six weeks.
