This is me, roadtripping from Minnesota to Montana, falling in love with Big Sky country and suddenly daydreaming about moving onto a ranch, living off the land, and commuting by horse. Maybe one day….
Oh hey! You found me.
I’m Ashley — lover of music, organizer of things (sometimes people!), and producer of events and experiences where community comes together, people feel seen, and memories are made.
I’ve had a beautifully non-traditional life path, often leading me to places I never expected. In my early years, I worked in food and beverage, hospitality, and retail. Eventually, I stumbled into the corporate world where I spent years producing photo shoots, large-scale brand activations, trade shows, and immersive one-night-only holiday parties for a fashion footwear brand.
Then the 2016 election happened. Like many others, I felt the need to do more, say more, make a bigger impact. I jumped into politics in 2018 and never looked back.
A lot of what I learned in the fashion world applied on the campaign trail — photo shoots now centered around healthcare stories, video content told the stories of business owners saved by PPP, and house parties became the driving force that connected communities and turned grassroots energy into action. It was some of the hardest and most rewarding work I’ve ever been part of.
Post-campaign, I began working in the merch world with nonprofits and progressive campaigns, helping strategize product launches and partnering with designers to create one-of-a-kind merch that not only raised thousands of dollars but also generated national media attention.
These days, life moves a little more slowly. I work with select clients who want to declutter their spaces and make room for more: more ease, more clarity, more time spent surrounded by what they love — and less time feeling overwhelmed by the stuff around them.
One thing that hasn’t changed is the desire to do meaningful work. So what’s next? Hopefully working for Mayor Mamdani to make New York City truly the best city in the world, and one that working people (including me!) can afford.
