Ashley lived in a group home, where she completed high school and went on to attend college, earning her degree in Psychology. Ashley has built an incredibly meaningful life since aging out of care. She has served in the military, is married, and is a devoted parent to her own children. She currently works in hospice care, supporting individuals and families through grief and end-of-life transitions. She earned her Master of Social Work in May 2022 and continues to pursue her passion for advocacy. Ashley is hardworking, dedicated, and deeply caring. She hopes to continue her professional growth by passing her clinical licensure exam and furthering her ability to advocate for children in foster care, giving back the same support she once received.

Ashley and her sister just had a super amazing paddle boarding lesson and they both loved it so much they are going to go as much as they can together this summer and bond while floating the river and local lakes. The instructor had many pointers on what to look for in a paddleboard that makes them safe and good for all levels. She found a board that would be just perfect, its her favorite color teal and its the perfect width so she wont constantly fall off.
