At the tender age of nine where she wowed at the legendary Apollo Theater in New York during one of their amateur night contests where she beat out over 200 aspiring entertainers.  At that moment, her career was launched and she was immediately asked to appear on the hit show, “Showtime at the Apollo” as the “Star of Tomorrow.”  After that, Ashley was on a roll and she landed a lead role in the stage production of The Lion King where she traveled with fellow cast members around the country performing to sell-out audiences and standing ovations.  Ashley was also a crowd favorite on the TV show “Star Search 2003” hosted by comedian Ben Stein.  Ashley stole the show and was praised for having such a commanding stage performance for someone so young.  She went on to place second in the semi-finals.   From there she went on to showcase her singing abilities in such plays as American Girl and Carousel.
