Leadership and Stakeholder Feedback at Spotify
Direct Manager
Ashley has an eye for design and creativity and has created beautiful and organized content for our advisors. She’s also created templates that the team has used for things like project planning, instructor guides, ILTs, etc.
Her work is consistently well structured, designed, and receives positive feedback.
D&B Lead
In my interactions with Ashley I see her relentlessly seeking opportunities to stretch beyond her core role AND comfort zone. Being a vocal advocate on themes like disability and mental health in the workplace requires a huge load of determination and passion, since these are 2 of the toughest themes within the diversity and inclusion realm to tackle due to the persisting damage of stigma. I praise and admire her bravery and resilience for that.
Stakeholder, Anti-Racism eLearning
Ashley stepped up to take on a sensitive and important topic, and quickly turned around a polished product that she should be proud of. Not only is it a great piece of training content, but it's not something everyone is equipped to do.
UX Writing Mentor
Ashley demonstrates behaviors that show a willingness and strong desire to learn about UXW, such as sharing content she finds in and outside of work and asking questions about what makes it successful or a poor experience. Her instincts are spot-on, and she quickly catches on to design-thinking concepts.
Also, Ashley makes connections between customer support and L&D tactics to our design team, which we otherwise may not have thought of or utilized.
Stakeholder, Accessibility
I have appreciated her loyalty and participation in accessibility offerings over the last several months. Ashley’s professionalism, collegiality, and confidence in her role have been evident in every interaction. She has a genuine curiosity for her work and possible intersections with other teams like mine. She is an effective communicator both in writing and verbally. I find myself learning from her at every turn.
Stakeholder, Podcast Support
Ashley was a really great, reliable partner on this project, and the work she did to build Podcast Support training was really innovative and game-changing. It was great work and it played a huge part in the success of that team's launch.

I've honestly learned so much from many of her courses and really love the experience she creates in them. Most of these projects also went through huge timeline changes and the normal rollercoaster of issues with stakeholders and information gaps.
Peer, QA Team
I have found Ashley to be erudite, knowledgeable and someone who is on top of their game. She is always well-prepped for meetings and is able to talk with confidence about the subject at hand. I was also really impressed by her willingness to seek info and not just impart it, and she was super open to the ideas and concepts we presented.
Direct Peer
I am impressed by the number of projects Ashley completes. On average, she has more projects than the rest of us and too many meetings to attend. I am not sure how she manages to have time for everything and meet deadlines.
Junior Peer
Ashley is passionate about the work she does!
She always wants to go that extra mile and implement innovative ideas regarding the way we do the agendas and other projects.
