About

Warm greetings and welcome to Crash Collaborations!

My name is Ashley, currently I am living in the UAE enjoying the expat life and working in lighting internationally. The name of my company comes from two facets I live by, first Curious: I strive for adventure and take inspiration from my everyday experiences! Collaboration: I believe we are better together and everyone’s voice, ideas, and experiences are valuable.Teamwork and promoting community is something I pride myself on and work hard to grow a positive environment in the projects I take on!

The entertainment world has been my passion throughout my entire upbringing. While lighting design has been the main focus I have enjoyed many aspect from company management, sound mixing, scenic painting, box office, the occasional appearance on stage, and many more aspects of entertainment business. I am always open to gain more experiences and skills in areas other than lighting design.

I recently achieved my Masters Degree in Lighting Design at San Diego State University under the supervision of Anne E. McMills. 

Thank you for taking the time to check out my website!
