About Abbie Ashford
I’m a marketing and events professional who thrives on creating experiences that connect people, spark ideas, and leave a lasting impression. Whether it’s managing sponsorships, leading our large-scale trade show presence, or developing event marketing strategies from the ground up, I love turning complex logistics into seamless, high-impact moments.I’m at my best in fast-paced environments where creativity meets structure and big ideas need a detailed plan to come to life. Working for a small agency has made me a hands-on leader who adapts quickly, wears many hats, and finds energy in solving challenges others might shy away from.Beyond event strategy and logistics, I’m passionate about mentoring young professionals, building lasting client relationships, and bringing fresh energy to every project I take on.When I’m not managing event timelines or planning the next big campaign, you can usually find me reading a good book, adding to my ever-growing travel bucket list, or taking my two dogs on new hikes and adventures.
