Ashley Messick

Ashley is a born and bred Washingtonian who left for college but came running back to the District as fast as her little legs could carry her. By day she is a Capitol Hill brat, but by night she is a lean, mean, eating machine. It's her goal in life to steal Anthony Bourdain's job...by whatever means necessary. Contact her at Ashley (at) welovedc (dot) com or follow her on Twitter.
