SINCE 2015, ASH HAS BEEN PUTTING THEIR EXPERTISE TO WORK, HELPING OTHER PEOPLE ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS
As a multi-passionate human, who’s career path started in social services, and the continued into a deep dive in real estate, Ash LOVES connecting with and supporting others. Since 2015, they have been offering masterminds, coaching & educational programs to entrepreneurs & real estate investors.
I love seeing people overcome hurdles and achieve their own goals!
Ash is passionate about founding the synergy in business and life. How do you succeed in the world while also making the world a better place and treating people with dignity.
Ash founded Fusion Property Management in 2012, offering Property Management with Heart & Soul.
Ash is very excited to be offering live #REfreedom MASTERMINDS for the very first time and is also very humbled to help people find emotional freedom via their transformative 8 week coaching program, EVOLVE.
ASH AND THEIR TWINS, BRIGHAM & ROOT LIVE IN ESSEX, VERMONT.
Together they love to adventure outdoors, sing silly made up songs and their favorite game to play at the park is ‘Chicken Monster’. This is where Ash basically chases them around the park, making chicken noises while moving their arms like chicken wings… While strangers stare in a confused fashion…
Ash, Briggs & Root just adopted a doggie named Jade in June 2022 (happy birthday R&B), and look forward to having chickens, growing more of their own food, and to build a pond, and a tiny pond house at on their 10 acres.
Ash went through a challenging IVF journey with their x-husband, in order to be blessed with the greatest gift of Brigham & Root. It wasn’t easy, but it was so damn worth it. I mean look at those smiles.
Ash is passionate about green and conscious living, and adores their 1970’s passive solar house, which is filled with too many plants, crystals, books and remote control cars.
Ash’s greatest wish for Brigham and Root (and for all humans) is that they learn to fully embrace and express their most truest selves and natures. There is no one else to be, other than fully yourself. And the world needs their (and your) unique and unapologetic expression of your soul.
Ash loves to travel, and has explored Mexico, Turkey, California, Germany and Puerto Rico and traveled solo to Morocco, Spain and Panama. They love creating new connections everywhere life takes them, and next on the travel bucket list is Egypt, India, Belize and New Guinea.
Ash is gender non-conforming and prefers they/them pronouns.
ASH HAS BEEN ON A PATH OF PERSONAL GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT FOR MANY, MANY YEARS.
From a very young age, Ash had been deeply connected to the experience of others. Growing up, Ash wanted to have a home for kiddos that didn’t have parents. They also dreamed of owning a business of some kind.
When Ash started college, they initially enrolled in the school of business, but then dropped out sophomore year to volunteer in NYC. I’m pretty sure my mom had a heart attack every day – thinking of little 19 year old Ash in THE BIG CITY.
After returning to Vermont and finishing their degree, Ash worked 8 years in the field of social work, their last job in that field was working at a half way house for women coming out of jail. Shortly after they transitioned to working at a socially focused credit union, where they were promoted from administrative work to mortgage lending within a few months, which lead to a deep dive on real estate.
Throughout this time, Ash practiced yoga, attended meditation and spiritual trainings and workshops, attended LOTS of therapy and got a lot of body work from very talented individuals.
Ash intends to live a life of service, in every interaction. They serve on the board of a non-profit, donate a portion of their business proceeds to non profits & loves to connect deeply with those their paths cross with.
Ash is incredibly humbled to bring their gifts and passions to the world with the following credentials.
- Certified Inner Alignment Coach
- 200 hour yoga teacher
- Reiki II attuned
- Graduate of Womens Small Business Program & NFTE
- 2004/2005 City Year NYC Americorps Volunteer
- Bachelors degree in Humanities, Women’s Studies & Art
BACK IN 2007, WAS WHEN ASH’S OBSESSION WITH REAL ESTATE STARTED.
It all started when Ash was making great use of time working the coat closet in a local bar (shortly after being promoted from beer wench), around the age of 21.
They knew that the traditional ‘road to retirement’ seemed rigged, and was determined to find another way to achieve financial freedom. They made their first purchase just after the age of 21, and didn’t stop…
At the peak, Ash has created a real estate portfolio worth. $3M, with just $85K of their own cash. Ash then saw this portfolio through a divorce, and now owns 4 properties, 1 vacation home on a lake, and 2 multi family homes rented as long term rentals.
Ash spent 8 years as a mortgage lender, cracking the code on how to invest – even without much cash. Then spent 5 years as a Realtor, learning the ins and outs of creative deals and structuring partnerships. And has owned and operated Fusion Property Management since 2012.
Ash loves using this incredible expertise to help others create financial freedom, and change the distribution of wealth in our community.
ASH LOVES ADVENTURE AND TRAVELING. EMPOWERING THEIR TEAM AND IMPLEMENTING BUSINESS SYSTEMS THAT WORK AND HAS CREATED THIS FREEDOM TO TRAVEL & EXPLORE THE WOLRD.
At the young age of 26, Ash became the founder and CEO of Fusion Property Management, and there was a lot to learn.
Over the years, Ash been on a journey discovering how to lead from the heart, and how to create opportunities for team members and how to do business in a way that supports the community.
At the beginning Ash thought they had to look the part, especially being a young looking, female presenting person, in an industry primarily dominated by men. Over the years, Ash has learned how to drop the business suit and has learned that the expertise and incredible dedication they and their team offer, are more than enough. If someone doesn’t want to do business with us because of how we look, it’s probably not a good fit anyway. <3
The pandemic, and then a concussion in September 2021, put the business systems to the official test. Grateful is not even close to describing how Ash felt, that their team and systems and software that were already in place, were able to keep the business running, and our clients and tenants taken care of, which enabled Ash the time to heal.
Your future is waiting.
We cannot wait to show you the way to a future of financial freedom, for you and generations to come.
Let’s connect!
We look forward to connect with you!
