Bio:
Originally from Lathrop, Missouri, Ashley is currently pursuing a M.A. in international environmental policy at the Monterey Institute of International Studies. Ashley spent three years living in El Salvador working as a Peace Corps Volunteer in a rural community where she worked in small business development and agroforestry projects. Her Peace Corps experience took her traveling all over Central America. After returning from living abroad, she was inspired by Kiva's transparency and the ability to connect lenders and borrowers all over the world. She hopes to return from her Kiva Fellowship to work in Washington, D.C., in environmental policy. Aside from graduate school and traveling, she enjoys the outdoors, music, documentaries, and non-fiction.
