“Ash’s meteoric rise in the industry is a result of two things that don't always come in the same package - drive and kindness. She is a gifted writer with big ideas about what's possible for storytelling in games, and she's a delight to work with, which means she is destined for great things in this highly-collaborative industry.”

— Susan O’ Connor (Bioshock, Tomb Raider, Far Cry 2)
“Ash brings enthusiasm, a commitment to craft excellence, and a consistent drive to learn as much as possible. She embraces greater responsibilities as they come up, and she is a productive and energetic collaborator in the writer's room. Bottom line, Ash is a driven and thoughtful storyteller with a bright future.”

— Armand Constantine (Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Guild Wars 2)
“Ash knows how to analyze a script or set of gameplay beats, point out what’s working and what isn’t, and propose constructive and creative solutions. She knows how to seek out and sift through feedback on her own work, and she takes constructive criticism as well as someone with many more years of experience under their belt.”

— Mary Kenney (Marvel’s Wolverine, The Walking Dead: The Final Season)
“Ash's writing abounds in irreverence, imagination and heart. Her stories are strange, surprising, deeply personal... and incredibly funny.”

— Daniel Tejera (Toros)
“In game development, there are moments where you must be flexible to a variety of pivots and alterations. Ash has proven to adapt well to the ever-changing environment.”

— Reed Giunta (World of Tanks)
“Ash’s unique voice comes up with the wildest, funniest, and most innovative stories. She has the drive and perseverance to see all of these ideas to their full potential.”

— Jake Crabtree (Peridot, Pokémon GO)
