About Ashley
As one of the first people in my family to receive a post-secondary degree, I understand what it's like to enter a new environment and feel a little out of place at first. However, these experiences have taught me to be brave in other areas of my life, such as moving across the country to take new job opportunities and experience West Coast living. Change can be hard (and I don't usually like it myself), but it's always the most rewarding. I look forward to supporting you on your next exciting journey!
My advice to future university students
University is an amazing place to challenge ideas and explore different ideological perspectives on how we, as humans, see and understand the world we live in together. Through this experience, you can discover your own place and purpose in the world. Embrace this opportunity to learn, grow, and find your passion.
