My name is Ashley, and I was born, raised, and currently reside in North Carolina. I received my undergraduate degree in Economics and Political Science in 2003 from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (Go Tar Heels!). I then obtained my J.D. from Campbell University's Norman A. Wiggins School of Law, and started practicing law in 2009. I currently practice solely in the field of consumer bankruptcy. I am married, and my husband and I have an almost 5-year-old daughter.
I have been obsessed with handwriting ever since I was little, so it was only natural that I gravitated toward calligraphy. I just began learning calligraphy in September, 2020, and I am in the midst of courses with Becca Courtice of The Happy Ever Crafter, learning modern calligraphy with both pointed pen and brush pens. For my next steps, I want to become proficient in copperplate, and love to ultimately earn a little cash on the side addressing wedding envelopes. Fun fact: I am left-handed!
I look forward to learning a multitude of information from this forum, and hope to provide meaningful contributions!
