About me

AnchorFit with Ashley

After being a competitive powerlifter for three years and eventually hitting a wall of boredom, I dove headfirst, or heels-first, into the realm of long distance races. I am an NCCA accredited National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) Certified Personal Trainer and eager to share my knowledge of many lives and years of fitness experience.

About me

Journalism

After years of my life under government control, an undergraduate degree in Psychology, and extreme uncertainty on how to secure a career in writing, I, of course, applied for UC Berkeley’s school of journalism. Perhaps I was a diversity acceptance, but with no remorse, I am currently writing for literally whoever will take me. And Substack. I graduate in May of 2026 and intend to continue pursuing health and wellness journalism, as well as other topics related to that.
