Hailing from the 305 with a Latin background and dividing her time between Miami, New York, and Philly, Ashley is endlessly exposed to a variety of music genres, cultures, and under-represented artists arising from the underground hip-hop scenes to the new wave in jazz. 

She has a vast knowledge of the music industry with over 5 years of experience as a publicist, artist manager, and curator for top entertainment companies including Universal Music Group, Amazon Music, and others. Ashley has worked on celebrated campaigns for legends like Nina Simone to breakout stars like Jon Batiste. She also facilitated a partnership between Impulse! and Jazz is Dead for the label’s 60th anniversary. Having evolved into a champion of what's next, Ashley curated monthly mixes for Gilles Peterson’s online radio platform, WorldwideFM, under the moniker ASHNAT for almost 2 years.

Today, Ashley supports the artist development of independent R&B artist Twelve’len and continues to explore her creative pursuits and passion points.
