Ashley is excited to make the leap to episodic television directing after many years of acting in television series, pilots, and movies. Her directing credits include the feature-length CIRCLE OF DECEPTION for Lifetime/A&E, NASHVILLE COUNTRY CHRISTMAS for Paramount Network/CBS TV Studios, and an original short film called MEATS which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and received the Creative Coalition Spotlight Award.

Way to go, Ashley!
