Bio
LaShana Calloway, J.D., M.P.A.
Ashton is a great and dedicated employee. She is extremely detail-oriented and ensured that she went above and beyond on every task she was assigned. If I asked Ashton to review files to reconcile wire transfer requests for foreign sub recipients on our grant projects, Ashton would not only review them but she would also create a spreadsheet with all of the expenses and the conversion rates so my colleagues and I could quickly check her work. Ashton is also extremely personable and, even as a student worker, she made herself an integrated and invaluable member of our staff. I am not exaggerating when I say that we could never find another student worker like her so I know she will be amazing in all of her professional pursuits.
