WHY ASHLEY BELONGS IN THE ROOM

01

Because she is going to stay in the room.

Ashley is dedicated to her clients and their success. She guides clients with confidence, strength and grace under pressure.

02

She understands the evolving role of the C-Suite and their stakeholders.

The stakeholder today is not the same as it was 2 years ago. CEO’s need to reach Washington, investors, clients/suppliers, and in a post covid trend, current and prospective employees. Ashley not only understands this but has architected several impact strategies to effectively speak to and reach these stakeholders.

03

She thrives in the intersection of business and policy.

Anyone who has worked with Ashley in the past has heard her say, in order to do business in or with the US, you must go through Washington.
