About
Hi, I’m Ashleigh Ewing. I was born and raised in southwest Colorado and have always loved the beauty of the outdoors. I graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education, with an emphasis in English as a Second Language. After college, I spent four years teaching preschool, where I developed a deep passion for supporting young children and their families.
I’m currently pursuing my Master of Social Work (MSW) to build on that foundation and make a broader impact through counseling, advocacy, and community support. My heart is especially drawn to working with kids and families, and I’m excited to grow in this next chapter—both personally and professionally. Lifelong learning is important to me, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue that journey while staying rooted in the place and values I love.

I'm passionate about supporting children, families, and individuals through counseling, advocacy, and community-based work.
