Ambassador Spotlight


My name is Ashley Horton and I work as a Multimedia Sales Representative for The Huntsville Item. It was important to me to be involved in the community which is why I chose to be an ambassador. Showing support for our local businesses and helping to promote them in our community is so important. I personally love to be out and networking and while I’m getting to know everyone, I'm creating bonds and friendships. In turn, my hope is that people learn to trust in me and will call on me for any need that they may have that I could possibly help them with.
