Hi There!

Ashleigh first showed interest in figure skating, after seeing non-stop clips of skating on tv during the whole “Nancy-Tonya” saga.

At three years old, she started scooting around her house pretending to skate. Finally, her mom brought her to the local ice rink in Marlborough, MA for public skating. Shortly there after, Ashleigh started Learn-to-Skate lessons, which eventually led her to a lifetime on the ice.

A few years after taking her first steps on the ice, she began private lessons & competitions. Her first competition program was to I’m Just a Girl by No Doubt at six years old.

Almost three decades later, she’s still glued to the ice. She considers the rink to be her second-home & her overall happy place.
