Meet The Aspen Academy Team

Hello! I’m so excited to introduce myself and share a bit about my journey. I graduated with a bachelor’s in educational studies and an MBA with an emphasis in management, which has shaped my understanding of both education and leadership. I’m married and a proud mom to four wonderful boys: Vinnie, Archie, Ralphie, and Conrad. Our home is lively with three dogs—Stella (our lab), Zeusy (our German Shepherd), and Marlie (our mascot), as well as a cat named Oreo, chickens, and some fish!

When I'm not with my family, you’ll likely find me enjoying the outdoors. I love being on the water with my friends and family, taking beach vacations, snow skiing, and spending weekends at the farm.

Before opening Aspen Academy, I worked in various daycare settings, which made me realize my passion for working with children. I was deeply inspired by my parents when they opened their own daycare, and from that moment on, I knew I wanted to be a director of one. After graduating from college, I ventured into corporate America for seven years, but I ultimately realized that my heart was always with the kids.

Now, I am thrilled to be leading Aspen Academy and providing the reliable, high-quality care that every working parent needs. As a working mom myself, I understand the importance of finding a daycare that you can trust. I’m here to help your family thrive, and I look forward to welcoming you to Aspen Academy!

My name is Ashley, and I’m excited to be joining the Aspen Academy team as Co-Director. I’m married and have a daughter named Maxine, along with our very energetic dog, Stella. As a family, we love being outdoors, visiting the Zoo, and spending time at one of our favorite places—the Magic House.

My educational background is in Early Childhood Education and I have over 10 years of experience working with young children. Throughout my career, I’ve taught in classrooms from Infants to Pre-K, and I’ve also been involved in management, teacher mentoring, and curriculum development.

I’m passionate about Early Childhood Education because it plays such an important role in shaping a child’s growth and love of learning. As a leader in this field, my goal is to help create a positive, supportive environment where your child feels safe, cared for, and excited to learn.

I can’t wait to get to know you and your family, and I look forward to being part of your child’s early learning journey!
