I fell in love with basketball when I was just seven years old — and looking back, I never could’ve predicted how much it would shape my life. The game has influenced the way I see the world and laid the foundation for so much of my everyday. It even led me to meeting my now-husband (lol). It's always been more than just X’s and O’s on the court.

​

When my playing days ended in the second half of college, I found a new passion: events. With a lot of hard work toward a Hospitality degree — and a little luck — I landed my dream job, blending both of my worlds.

​

Working for the Golden State Warriors over the past nine years has truly been the opportunity of a lifetime. From opening a new arena to building brands and creating unforgettable experiences in sports and entertainment, I’ve grown so much — and now, I’m ready for what’s next.

​

Today, I paid homage to the game that taught me so much about myself and helped shape my career. But now, I’m getting back to basics: putting my community on game and making the “impossible” or “too expensive” feel within reach.

Ball was life — but today, it’s Events Life Ash.
