Her writing has appeared in Edible Santa Fe magazine and blog, Foodshed magazine (formerly Flavor), and Metrocurean.com. She also spent time as the E-News Producer for FRESHFARM Markets in Washington, D.C. 

Ashlie is BarSmarts certified and is currently pursuing a sommelier certification with the Court of Master Sommeliers. 

She lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she has a view of two beautiful mountain ranges from her patio and enjoys eating copious amounts of the local specialty, green chile.
