Coach Ashley joined the NCAP coaching staff in June of 2024. Coach Ashley started swimming at 8 right here in northern Virginia. She was an all-conference swimmer at Seton School for 2 years and competed at the VISAA State Championships all 4 years of her high school career. She began coaching at the age of 15 when she became a junior coach for the Wellington Dolphins in the PWCSL where she realized her true passion for coaching. Ashley continued as an assistant coach there throughout high school. After graduating, she went to Clemson University where she continued her swimming career on the college club swim team. At the age of 19, she became the head coach of the Wellington Dolphins’ developmental team where she trained new swimmers in basic technique to earn a spot on the competitive team.
