Hi, I’m Ashley

Before I could write, I surveyed my family’s favorite colors in crayon tallies.

Before I understood consumer psychology, I sold the most Girl Scout cookies on cold, rainy nights.

Before I knew “pitching,” I thrived in trifold presentations on mythology and story structure.

Before taking a single ad class, I built a full campaign book for my competitive Ad Team application.

Stepping into the Ad Team room was my career catalyst.

Since then, I’ve earned a degree in Advertising, won two national awards, interned across the industry, led student organizations, and started my Masters in Communication. Strategic thinking is my natural inclination, but I’m committed to growing in the craft every day (or midnight research deep dive).

Here’s the thing—magic doesn’t happen by accident. It’s invited in through preparation, diligence, and a deep curiosity about what makes people connect.

I’m the planner friend, the handwritten letter writer, and host of Galentine’s—building relationships through intentional action. That same energy fuels my approach to advertising strategy.

I ask the right questions and let the data tell the story. I thrive within project constraints, digging deeper to uncover “aha-moment insights” that spark connections between consumers and brands. The experiences on my resume are just the beginning—I’m ready for the next chapter.

If you’re interested in “judging a book beyond its cover,” let’s connect:

I’m looking forward to our networking “meet-cute”!
