About Me
My name is Ashley, I was born and raised in far northern California. I graduated an extremely small high school were I was a jacketed member of the FFA where I competed heavily and began my life long love affair with black face market sheep, chickens, swine and all aspects of Ag. and livestock in general. I have completed three years worth college. Most of my credits are in agriculture, farming and training working ranch horses. But I also used to enjoy wrestling, modeling/acting, painting, and to be honest I thought way to much of myself. But, seriously who hasn’t gone through that phase. I also love to hunting all kinds of game, dancing, riding horses, showing sheep, photography, my family, my husband, my kids, my pets and the good Lord and no, not necessarily in that order.
