For Ashley, art has always been a gentle way to share her views with the world.

As a current Master of Social Work student at Columbia University, she is passionate about social justice and enjoys advocating through art by capturing emotion with the paintbrush, and intimate moments through the lens. In her down time, Ashley enjoys reading psychological thrillers, puzzling, and spending time with her close circle of friends.

Although she has lived in multiple cities across the United States and in Europe, Ashley believes one can find as much beauty by migrating across the room as in traveling across the ocean-it is all about perspective.
