About Ashley Blake
Ashley was born and raised in a small town in the mountains
of MD. Living in such a small town with not much to do, Ashley became an avid
reader and dreamed of what it would be like to live at the beach helping people
as a career.
After pursuing an education in Biology, Ashley became a high school Physical Science, Biology,
and Conceptual Biology teacher and then later a teacher at her local community
college. In 2018, Ashley and her daughter moved to Virginia and never looked
back!
Ashley says her daughter is
thriving here in HRVA, where she gets to ride horses, engage with culturally
diverse people and grow. They even run their own little business and also love
being able to head to the beach whenever they can and eat at all their favorite
places (and trying new places, too!).
Ashley says she kind of fell into real estate, or was given a hard nudge to start about 4 years ago. She was apprehensive to start, but has proven to herself that she is better than she ever thought she would be. Real estate has been so rewarding as it has allowed her to pour into people. She thinks the most magical moment is when you walk into a home with a client and see the look on their face when they have found “the one”. She can feel the excitement and it warms her soul.
