Ashleigh began swimming competitively at a young age and continued competing through the end of high school. She competed in USA Swimming with Hillenbrand Aquatics (now FORD Aquatics) and was captain of the Desert Christian High School swim team, competing at the state championships all four years of high school.

After graduating, Ashleigh returned to Desert Christian as a swim coach, serving in both assistant and head coaching roles over many seasons. Throughout the years, on and off, she has also continued her own love of the sport by swimming Masters with both FORD Aquatics and the JCC.

Ashleigh’s connection to Highland Vista goes back to her own childhood. She lived in the neighborhood during her middle school/ early high school years and was a member of the HVAC swim team—making it especially meaningful for her to now coach and help grow the program she was once a part of.

Ashleigh is a wife to Ryan, who also swam for HVAC growing up, and a mom of three. She has a heart for the Highland Vista community and loves creating a place where kids can grow as swimmers, build confidence, develop friendships, and discover a lifelong love of swimming.
