Survivor

Alan started as a member of the Levu tribe where he was quick to form an alliance with Ben Driebergen, Ashley Nolan, and JP Hilsabeck. However, as quick as this majority alliance began, it would disintegrate when Alan accused JP and Ashley of being a power couple due to how close they were becoming and forced JP to strip to prove that he was not in possession of a Hidden Immunity Idol. The alliance stuck together despite this and voted out Katrina Radke at the first Tribal Council.

The Levu tribe enjoyed two consecutive immunity wins, though Alan's aggressive nature turned many off from aligning with him as Ben, who he first formed the alliance with, began working with Chrissy Hofbeck to form a dominant alliance on the tribe going forward.

On Day 9, a Tribe Switch occurred before the Reward Challenge and Alan remained on the Levu tribe along with Ashley and now joined by Devon Pinto from Yawa, as well as Joe Mena and Desi Williams from Soko. Alan and Ashley buried the hatchet and needed to pull in Devon as their swing vote to get rid of Desi or Joe. The new Levu tribe lost immunity on Day 11 and Joe planned to deflect votes onto himself by starting a fight with Alan and Ashley in hopes of playing his Hidden Immunity Idol to keep both himself and Desi safe. At Tribal Council, the group learned that Devon's vote had been blocked by former Soko member Jessica Johnston's advantage. After the vote, Joe played his idol on himself after seeing from Ashley's facial expressions and deduced that they had voted for him and Alan was sent home in a 2-0 vote, becoming the fourth person to be voted out of Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers.
