This post is dedicated to someone I personally know and admire, my good friend Ashley West. Born and raised in NYC Ashley West finally ended up residing in Baltimore but may not remain here much longer due to her many goals and aspirations. A recent Towson University graduate, Ashley decided to step on the gas pedal and go full speed ahead to designing her future. She has business plans and strategies that make me wide eyed with wonder and awe. Because her dreams and visions are plentiful, it doesn’t even surprise me that this ambitious woman holds three jobs, one she recently acquired as the newest edition to the Baltimore Examiner as a relationship columnist. And what a perfect fit for her. Myself and several of Ashley’s friends often turn to her for advice on relationship matters. Her very first article for the Examiner is featured above (click headline). And knowing Ashley she won’t stop here. I am very proud of Ashley. Proud to have her in my life as a friend and also proud of her achievements. Shout out to you Ms. West and let’s read The Examiner! Congrats <3
