While previously working as an educator, Ashley built and utilized multiple websites for personal and professional development as well as for student assignments. This practice fostered a desire to learn more about coding and web design. Since then, she’s completed classes in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, VSEditor, API, GitHub, Boostrap, Hosting, Responsiveness, SEO, React, and more. If someone were to tell her younger self that she’d now be designing and building websites, she would be thrilled. She’s come a long way since her Myspace coding days!
Ashley’s positive energy, unique global perspectives, and growth mindset have translated very well into her role as Digital Specialist here at Proximo. She’s settled in Gloucester, Virginia (her hometown) after six years of living and teaching abroad in South Korea, France, and Colombia. In her spare time, Ashley does hand embroidery and makes scrapbooks of her adventures. She lives with her fiancé Michael, cat Sophie, and pup Tippy.
