She then grew up in the Melbourne suburb of Narre Warren and studied voice at the University of Melbourne and the Music Academy of the West in Montecito, California.In 2016 she became a member of the Opera Australia Moffatt Oxenbould Young Artist Program after winning the Dame Joan Sutherland Scholarship; in the same year she performed in a large scale "silent opera" on the steps of the Sydney Opera House. Alleaume's voice was used in the 2021 feature film Falling for Figaro for the character Millie Cantwell.

She notably reprised the role to critical acclaim for Opera Australia's Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour in 2021 and again for Welsh National Opera in 2023. In 2025, Alleaume again stepped in at a day's notice to sing Pamina, which she had sung before but never in German, for a production of The Magic Flute by the State Opera of South Australia.
