“My motto is ‘pay it forward,’ so I love to help others and give back what has been given to me.”
With La Hacienda Since 2017
Ashley became La Hacienda’s Business Development representative for the Dallas area in 2017 after being referred for the position by her predecessor, Kaye Smith.
“Working for La Hacienda has taught me that I can use my skills in others areas of this business. It has challenged me to step out of my comfort zone, it has taught me to ask for help from either my team or others around me, and it has humbled me and reminded me there is more to learn.”
“I love working for a place of integrity and for a place that does exceptional work! I love how La Hacienda cares about me personally and my family.”
