Ashley's knowledge of what makes an arts organization work (and fail) is so uniquely and thoroughly developed that she is perfect to bounce an idea (and all of the pros and cons I've already come up with to present to my board) off of! She can talk in specifics and broad terms and be incredibly helpful both ways.

You truly have been one of the greatest blessings the Cincinnati Ballet team received in my tenure. From the second we signed up for the 30-minute consultation, you made the process/experience so easy, accessible, and inspired confidence in your knowledge and experience in the arts sector and how you might be able to help us! I truly enjoyed every interaction I had with you, and the team we worked with commented often just how simple and engaging you made the process and how organized and efficient you are!
