Ashley has been instrumental in the success of our nonprofit organization. She has helped us structure and grow our programs, to where we now have more attendees and sponsorships. In addition she helps brainstorm ideas and solves complex issues which allows projects to be accomplished earlier than projected. One of her key strengths is helping leaders stay focused and organized.
We would not be where we are today without her.
