Allen graduated from South Brunswick High School in 1977 and later attended night classes at CFCC and received his diploma for Private Investigator from Stratford Career Institute in 2020. He spent his early years perfecting his hobbies of painting and playing the guitar. He painted everything from portraits, business signs, billboards, cars and the cranes at the state ports. Painting is what made him money but he was most known for his guitar skills, he played in multiple bands in Wilmington and surrounding areas, leaving an impact on the musicians that knew him.
