With a career spanning 15 years in various environmental roles, Ashley brings a wealth of experience in research, consultancy, and education.

Ashley also co-authored a soil science paper published in a major academic journal.
Ashley’s family has a deep-rooted farming history in Washington County, Iowa, where they manage a mix of livestock and row crop operations. During her time in New Zealand, she lived on a small farm with Angus cattle, saddleback pigs, and a variety of poultry.
In her free time, Ashley enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking, hunting, and gardening, as well as cooking and taking relaxing Sunday drives. She recently returned to rural Iowa to provide her daughter, Wren, with the same formative experiences she cherished growing up. Ashley’s professional mantra is simple: to leave things better than she found them.
