co-founder | clerk | Board member

After growing up near the coast of Southern California, Ashley now spends her free time year-round in Wellfleet, with her husband, Jonathon, and their two golden retrievers, Cornelius and Sawyer. From the moment they first stepped onto the Outer Cape beaches, Ashley and Jonathon knew they were in a very special place. For several years, they imagined their family growing up surfing, body boarding, and swimming in the waves, as they both had in California. Slowly, they came to realize their dreams were far from reality. After considering their options, including selling their home, they settled on trying to save the life and place they had grown to love so much.

​Ashley has a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Business Administration and Accounting, respectively, from the University of Notre Dame. As a CPA, she worked for PwC, providing audit and advisory services in New York, Boston, and elsewhere in the Northeast. She then went on to start and run a real estate investment business with her family.
