Meet Ashley
Ashley was born in the US and raised in New Zealand, so one of the first things you will notice about her is her strong New Zealand accent (which is totally different to an Australian one). She moved to the USA in 2014 as the Manager and Assistant Coach for the Harvard Polo Club. In her 10 years here, she has spent time in Boston, Florida and now calls Hunt Valley, MD home. Famous for its equestrian community Ashley can often be found at the Hunt Club, or attending a local steeplechase race.
Ashley is a passionate athlete who spends her summers playing horse polo and the fall/winter playing women's Division I club rugby. She has represented the USA in both sports and has travelled around the world pursuing this passion. She has two horses and a rescue dog Kilo who keep her active outside of office hours.
Ashley can often be found travelling to visit family in New Zealand, spending her time on her Fathers horse and sheep farm. She loves new challenges and has recently taken up Golf.
Lending a hand in my community.
As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.
Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.

How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
