Laurie Ashley

Laurie Ashley began her career in education in 1990 and has served as a school administrator and teacher in several North Carolina school districts, as well as with the Department of Defense on Fort Bragg. After many years in public education, she retired in 2025 and now serves as the Director of the Haymount United Methodist Church Preschool, where she continues her love for working with young children and her desire to serve the Lord.
