My story, and how it shapes the way I work with you.
Originally from Philadelphia, Ashley recently made Statesville her home. After relocating and purchasing her first home in North Carolina, she understands firsthand the emotions, decisions, and details that come with a major move. That personal experience gives her a unique level of empathy and insight when guiding clients through their own transitions. Ashley brings five years of professional experience as a Contracts Analyst in the software and life sciences technology space. Supporting sales teams through complex proposals and contracts, she developed exceptional attention to detail, strong negotiation skills, and the ability to remain calm and strategic under pressure. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Marketing from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and is a licensed North Carolina real estate agent. Ashley is known for being thoughtful, energetic, patient, and solution-oriented. She approaches every client relationship with integrity, optimism, and a genuine desire to help others feel confident in their decisions. Beyond real estate, Ashley enjoys working out, traveling, and learning to play the piano. She is a proud parent to a curious five-year-old and a devoted dog lover. A fun fact many people are surprised to learn: Ashley was a ballerina for 17 years—performing at Disney World, touring with a Russian ballet company in The Nutcracker, and dancing for the Philadelphia 76ers Jr. Dance Team!
A local guide, with a boutique brokerage's full weight behind them.
Ashley pairs deep local knowledge with True North's marketing, technology, and distribution — so clients get concierge-level attention without giving up scale.
How Ashley + True North actually market your home.
No cookie-cutter checklists. Every listing gets the same senior-level treatment.
A real comparative market analysis with live absorption data from Canopy MLS — plus an honest range, not a wish price.
Every listing includes pro photography, floor plans, and — where it earns its keep — drone, video walk-throughs, and twilight shots. No 'good enough' iPhone photos.
Your home hits Canopy MLS plus Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, and Homes.com — all with correct data and pro media.
True North's Social Studio generates on-brand posts across Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn, plus a targeted email push to our sphere and past-client database.
Ashley negotiates with a full brokerage playbook behind them — pricing strategy, inspection response templates, and appraisal defense that a solo agent can't match.
A dedicated coordinator owns your timeline — inspections, appraisal, lender check-ins, closing — so you get updates, not scavenger hunts.
You get a real person on the phone, backed by the entire True North operation.

- ✓A written buyer or seller game plan before you ever tour or list.
- ✓Transparent pricing — no junk fees, no surprise closing costs.
- ✓Post-close support: contractor referrals, tax appeals, refinance timing.
- ✓A brokerage that treats agents like partners, not seat-fillers — which is why your agent is here for the long haul.
