ACTOR. MENTOR. COACH.

Career strategy for working creatives

It’s about building a sustainable, creative life

Through artistry, mentorship, and creative entrepreneurship, I’m redefining what it means to thrive as a multi-hyphenate creative — where art, work, and wellbeing can actually coexist..

Welcome, I’m Ashlee.

I’ve spent over two decades onstage and nearly a decade in higher education — living both the magic and the burnout that come with a creative career.

Now, I’ve built a life that blends artistry, entrepreneurship, and alignment — performing, creating, and coaching from a place of freedom and flow. I help other artists and entrepreneurs do the same: design lives that feel as good as they look, and careers that are both creative and financially sustainable.

For me, success isn’t about fame or perfection — it’s about fulfillment. It’s about creating work that lights you up and supports your life.

I collaborate with performers, educators, and creative entrepreneurs who are ready to build careers that reflect who they truly are — not who they were told to be. Because thriving in the arts shouldn’t mean burning out or going broke.

Creative Work: Onstage, On Camera, Online

I’m an actress and storyteller who’s spent over two decades performing, creating, and collaborating across stage, screen, and digital platforms. My work explores what it means to live a creative life on your own terms through artistry, authenticity, and alignment.

Whether I’m performing in musicals, plays, filming commercials, or mentoring artists, storytelling is the thread that connects it all.
