Whenever needed, Ashley also assists our coaching team, helping to prepare clients for interviews and speaking engagements.

She had stops at tv stations in Montgomery and Phoenix, before landing back in Atlanta at CBS46, where she was a lead reporter and weekend anchor. Ashley has two EMMY awards, including one for best live reporter. Her television experience is beneficial to our clients as they navigate the changing media landscape.
