She spent much of her time at UT serving as a student attorney in the Advocacy Clinic, the Domestic Violence Clinic, and the Education Practicum. Ashley also interned for the Tennessee District Attorney's Office, 7th Judicial District (2014), the Tennessee Department of Children's Services (2013) and Shelby County Public Defender's Office (2013). Ashley enjoys exploring Nashville, which she describes as her dream city, and its thriving entertainment scene. While she was participating in the Semester at Sea Study Abroad program, during which time she traveled around the Mediterranean and Northern Africa and took classes on an old cruise ship, Ashley developed a passion for traveling. In addition to traveling, she enjoys watching, and attending when possible, college football games. While she will always be a Buckeye at heart, she isn’t shy when it comes to singing Rocky Top.
