Summary

Ashleigh Wilson is a self proclaimed elevator baby, being raised in the elevator industry. She grew up with an interesting mix of entrepreneurial spirit, along side blue collar influence. Outside of her current venture, she likes to reach books and is very into fashion. For books, she likes self help, spiritual type books, like Brene Brown or Glennon Doyle. At a prior company, Ashleigh did a research profit that surfaced to her how much the industry was focused solely on profits, and not the people they were serving. She left her company, and had a moment where she envisioned how she would change the industry, and shift the power back to the customer. This is the creation story of Auditmate.
