At Farnsworth, Ashley works on proposals to assist in selling the firm's services to clients. She has been a part of SMPS for a little over a year now and has been encouraged to get involved on a committee. She recently joined the communications committee to help create graphics for the chapter's social media. 

I love the variety of events that our chapter offers. Specifically, I enjoyed the coffee connections and Coordinators Club! 

The advice I was given by my college mentor was to make an effort to be involved with your work. Being a part of SMPS and various committees at Farnsworth has helped me surround myself with great people! 

Time management is definitely a skill I have had to master within this industry. I try to stay organized with deadlines. Another thing is never to be afraid to ask for help. If I'm feeling overwhelmed with my workload, I communicate that to my team! We are an extremely close group and are always willing to shift things around to make the deadlines work! 

If I were a superhero, I would love the ability to turn back time! Knowing things I know now may have been good back then. 

When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up? And why?
As a kid, I always wanted to be a nurse because my mom is! I did go to nursing school for a while and then quickly switched to marketing (Thank God).
