I am the principal attorney and founder of Abogada Ashley Immigration. I practice solely immigration law. I speak Spanish. My office is located in the beautiful Carlsbad Village, only miles from where I grew up.
I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences degree in Psychology, cum laude, from San Diego State University and my Juris Doctor degree from California Western School of Law. I am licensed to practice law in California.
When I am not in the office, I love being outdoors. You will often find me with my 10 year old dog who still looks like a puppy!
