Ashlynn began modeling when she was 10 and even turned down the offer to move to NYC and sign with Ford Modeling due to still pursuing her education. She instead began booking commercials and print work with several National companies, such as Walmart. Ashlynn then dove into acting and the theatre department during her junior year of high school at Patrick Henry High. She also obtained the majority of her dance training from Central VA Dance Academy. Ashlynn then attended Virginia Tech and majored in theatre, with a focus in performance. Her gift for writing led her to add a second major of creative writing. At the university, she got a job as a dance teacher at a local studio in Blacksburg, VA, and participated in several student films, workshop plays, and main stage shows. In 2021, she booked an Indie feature film with Ramer Productions while on her summer break from college. As a result of her engagement and inspiration for the project, the director of the film, Bobby Mercer, rewrote the entire script and gave her a co-starring role. Following her graduation, she moved to Atlanta, GA to be closer to the film industry.
