She then went on to pursue a Master of Arts in Education and worked simultaneously to receive her Multi-Subject Teaching Credential from Pepperdine University.

After graduating from Pepperdine University, Ashley began her Catholic school teaching career at St. Mel School in Woodland Hills, CA. Her faith journey began in her early years at St. Mel, where she went through RCIA and, in addition to serving the school, began serving the parish community as a Eucharistic Minister. She served that school community for 15 years, as a classroom teacher in kindergarten and 3rd grade; and, for one year, as the Director of Curriculum. She graduated from Loyola Marymount University with her Catholic School Administrative Certificate. In addition to teaching, Ashley works with her family’s foundation, The Reagan Legacy Foundation, that honors the military and WWII vets through various initiatives. Ashley looks forward to continuing to grow her Catholic faith and live out her passion.
