If Ashley wasn’t a Marketing and Business Development Manager they would love to be a primary school teacher - a role that, surprisingly, shares many of the same skills. Clear communication. Endless patience. And the ability to bring order to lively groups. With two young boys at home, she’s already had plenty of practice!
“Like law, education is an industry that needs people who genuinely care about clarity, trust and doing the right thing for others. That’s what draws me to it.”
